Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide for a technical solution to systematic bias inherent in existing non-price-based securities indexation systems. Existing non-price-based securities indexing systems and methods either equal weight securities or base index weights on one or more fundamental size factors. These methods cause a bias towards stocks exhibiting low price-based index weights relative to size factor(s). As a result, existing non-price-based indexation methods determine index weights that are the exact opposite of how humans determine index weights in price-based indices. Embodiments of the present invention further provide for an improved securities indexation system, by improving efficiency, processing times, and memory requirements, in the process of determining unbiased non-price-based index weights in non-price-based indexation of securities.
