Founded in 2021 by four finance professors hailing from the states of Arizona, Colorado, and Utah, the name "Four Corners" pays homage to the geographical location where their states touch.

 

The mission of the Four Corners Center for Research on Index Investments is to foster and advance research in the area of index investments (broadly defined), including both empirical and theoretical work. Four Corners strives to accomplish this goal by showcasing frontier studies, lowering the barriers to index investment research, and developing strong ties with industry practitioners to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and to provide collaboration.
