The Picard Angst Commodity Index^™ (PACI) is a balanced raw materials index meant to reflect general commodity price trends and provide broad-based exposure to commodities as an asset class.

Simple straightforward construction principles and a transparent calculation methodology allow for cost-efficient replication. As a stable benchmark the index features conservative diversification rules taking into account all important commodity sectors.

Since its launch by Picard Angst Commodities Ltd. the index has been calculated and published on an excess return (PACI-ER) as well as a total return (PACI-TR) basis.
