MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of investment
decision support tools worldwide, announced today that it was named
the benchmark of choice for international equity exchange traded
funds (ETFs) in the fourth annual Greenwich Associates study,
Institutional Investors’ Relationship with ETFs Deepens. The study
found that 88% of US institutional ETF users and 100% percent of
investment consultants name MSCI as their benchmark of choice.
"MSCI is committed to providing high quality indices to the
investment community and this recognition is validation
directly from the industry that not only are we doing the right
thing by our clients but that the index matters,” said Baer Pettit,
Managing Director and Global Head of the MSCI Index Business. "The
index is a critical tool for institutional investors. The Greenwich
Associates study shows that institutions continue to embrace ETFs
and, in turn, there will only be a greater emphasis on a funds
underlying index."
Among the other key findings in this year’s report is the role
the index plays when selecting an ETF. 40 percent of institutions
ranked the benchmarks used in ETFs among the top three factors they
consider when assessing individual products.
The results of the study are based on interviews with 179 US
institutional funds interviewed between February and April 2013 and
include corporate pension funds, public pension funds, foundations
and endowments, and large asset management firms. For the first
time this year, investment consultants, insurance companies and
registered investment advisors were also interviewed.
