Top Spot for Capital Markets-Buy Side for Second Year
Running
MSCI Inc. (NYSE:MSCI), a leading provider of portfolio
construction and risk management tools for global investors,
announced it has been named a top 5 risk management technology firm
in the 2015 RiskTech100®, the most comprehensive study of the
world’s most significant risk and compliance technology companies
by Chartis. MSCI was also named the top firm in the Capital Markets
– Buy-Side category.
“Over the last twelve months, “agile risk management” has
emerged as a central theme for many of the companies we’ve spoken
to, with leading financial and non-financial firms looking to
increase flexibility and reduce ‘time to compliance’. The ongoing
need to operate under ever tighter budgets is an additional
incentive for simplification and automation,” said, Peyman
Mestchian, Managing Partner at Chartis. “MSCI’s strength lies in
their unique ability to address the biggest concerns in the market
today covering all aspects of risk and performance vital to any
investment firm or bank.”
RiskTech100 is globally acknowledged as the most comprehensive
study in the risk management industry. Companies are ranked
according to their functionality, core technology, organizational
strength, customer satisfaction, market presence and innovation.
This is the second year running that MSCI has been placed among the
top 5 risk technology providers in the industry and lead in the
Capital Markets-Buy Side category, which have traditionally been
leaders in risk technology investment. MSCI’s recent acquisition of
Insignis was noted in the report as a significant M&A deal as
the industry focuses on streamlining data and automation.
Peter Zangari, Managing Director and Global Head of Analytics at
MSCI, said, “Clients around the world seek answers to challenges
they face in an increasingly complex regulatory environment. We are
committed and focused on helping clients define and implement their
workflows – from data aggregation to the delivery of accurate, high
quality analytics and this is recognition from our peers of the
success of that continued effort.”

Information containing any historical information, data or
analysis should not be taken as an indication or guarantee of any
future performance, analysis, forecast or prediction. Past
performance does not guarantee future results.
The Information should not be relied on and is not a substitute
for the skill, judgment and experience of the user, its management,

None of the Information constitutes an offer to sell (or a

It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Exposure to
an asset class or trading strategy or other category represented by
an index is only available through third party investable
instruments (if any) based on that index. MSCI does not issue,
sponsor, endorse, market, offer, review or otherwise express any
opinion regarding any fund, ETF, derivative or other security,
investment, financial product or trading strategy that is based on,
linked to or seeks to provide an investment return related to the
performance of any MSCI index (collectively, “Index Linked
Investments”). MSCI makes no assurance that any Index Linked
Investments will accurately track index performance or provide
positive investment returns. MSCI Inc. is not an investment adviser
or fiduciary and MSCI makes no representation regarding the
advisability of investing in any Index Linked Investments.
Index returns do not represent the results of actual trading of
investible assets/securities. MSCI maintains and calculates
indexes, but does not manage actual assets. Index returns do not
reflect payment of any sales charges or fees an investor may pay to
purchase the securities underlying the index or Index Linked
Investments. The imposition of these fees and charges would cause
the performance of an Index Linked Investment to be different than
the MSCI index performance.
The Information may contain back tested data. Back-tested
performance is not actual performance, but is hypothetical. There
are frequently material differences between back tested performance
results and actual results subsequently achieved by any investment
strategy.
Constituents of MSCI equity indexes are listed companies, which
are included in or excluded from the indexes according to the
application of the relevant index methodologies. Accordingly,
constituents in MSCI equity indexes may include MSCI Inc., clients
of MSCI or suppliers to MSCI. Inclusion of a security within an
MSCI index is not a recommendation by MSCI to buy, sell, or hold
such security, nor is it considered to be investment advice.
Data and information produced by various affiliates of MSCI
Inc., including MSCI ESG Research Inc. and Barra LLC, may be used
in calculating certain MSCI equity indexes. More information can be
found in the relevant standard equity index methodologies on
www.msci.com.
MSCI receives compensation in connection with licensing its
indexes to third parties. MSCI Inc.’s revenue includes fees based
on assets in investment products linked to MSCI equity indexes.
