- Index Innovation of the
Year
- Best Index Provider for ETF
Products
- Best Provider of Benchmark
Indices
MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of investment
decision support tools worldwide, is pleased to announce that it
has won top honors in three industry awards recognizing leadership
in the index industry.
Earlier this month, MSCI was awarded ‘Index Innovation
of the Year’ in the Structured Products Europe Awards
2013, which recognize excellence and innovation in the
manufacture and distribution of structured products. MSCI was
also voted ‘Best Index Provider for ETF
Products’ in the inaugural ETF Risk European Rankings
2013, which name the best providers in the exchange-traded fund
(ETF) industry, as voted by institutional investors, consultants,
trading houses, ETF issuers, research firms and exchanges. In
October, for the fifth consecutive year, MSCI was named ‘Best
Provider of Benchmark Indices’ in the Asian Investor
2013 Service Provider Awards.
“These industry awards reflect MSCI’s position as a pioneer in
the creation of innovative products, such as factor indices, and
the enduring appeal of our traditional market cap weighted
indices,” said Baer Pettit, Managing Director and Global Head of
the MSCI Index Business. “With the continued adoption of our
indices as the basis of new ETFs, and a number of exciting new
index launches this year, MSCI continues to set the standard in the
index world and we are proud that this has been recognized by the
industry.”
This has been a year of recognition for MSCI’s index business.
In October, Deborah Yang, Managing Director and Head of the MSCI
Index Business in EMEA and India, was named one of the Top 100
Influential Women in the European financial markets by Financial
News. In July 2013, MSCI was named the benchmark of choice for
international equity ETFs in the fourth annual Greenwich Associates
study.1 The study found that 88% of US institutional ETF users and
100% percent of investment consultants named MSCI as their
benchmark of choice.
Commenting on MSCI winning the ‘Index Innovation of the Year’
award, Structured Products Magazine wrote, “MSCI has taken the lead
in transforming academic research into empirical indexes with its
range of risk premia benchmarks, which have gathered a total of USD
31 billion throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa in
structured products and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). At a time
when risk premia strategies are a hot topic with investors
exploring risk factors, MSCI stands out as the index provider that
best reflects their prevailing investment preferences.”
