MSCI Introduces New Global Economic Exposure Data Product

Business Wire
MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of investment
decision support tools worldwide, announced today that it has
launched the MSCI Economic Exposure Security Data modules. This
innovative offering calculates the economic exposure for all
constituents of the company’s global flagship index, the MSCI ACWI
Index, breaking out each stock’s reported revenues on a
country-by-country basis.
MSCI applies a consistent and transparent methodology to
quantify a company’s economic exposure to a given country, based on
the geographic distribution of its revenues. This enables
institutional investors, such as pension plans, asset managers, or
broker dealers to easily compute the economic exposure of a
portfolio by aggregating the revenues of its constituents by
country or region.
This approach allows investors to:
- measure and compare a portfolio’s
economic exposure to a benchmark;
- manage macro or thematic risks arising
from a portfolio’s economic exposure at a country, industry or
regional level; and,
- implement macro views and themes by
gearing a portfolio’s economic exposure towards (or away from)
target regions or countries.
“With the continued integration of world markets, companies are
increasingly exposed to economic activity beyond their domestic
borders,” said Baer Pettit, Managing Director and Head of the MSCI
Index Business. “MSCI systematically calculates the geographic
sources of company revenues, offering a compelling new dimension to
the evaluation of the exposures within a domestic, regional or
global equity opportunity set.”
MSCI Economic Exposure Security Data is available in two
modules—one for Developed Markets securities and the other for
Emerging Markets. The modules complement the family of MSCI
Economic Exposure Indices introduced earlier this year.
