MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of indexes, portfolio
analytics, and services for global investors, today announced its
latest factor innovation, the MSCI Multi-Asset Class Factor Model
(MSCI MAC Factor Model), a multi-tiered model that helps investors
analyze key portfolio exposures across asset classes through an
integrated and consistent framework.
Over the last decade, technology, regulatory changes, and the
popularity of passive investments have continued to disrupt the
active management landscape. As investors continue to focus on
outcomes, their demand for investment solutions aligned with those
outcomes continues to increase. Increasingly, we believe the
ability to construct and communicate allocation decisions across
multiple asset classes will become more valuable.
The MSCI MAC Factor Model can help investors adapt to the
rapidly shifting landscape. It supports a factor-based asset
allocation process and provides further insight, control and
consistency throughout the investment process. Specifically, the
model is designed to help investors achieve the following:
- Transition from traditional asset
allocation to factor-based asset allocation
- Identify and implement systematic
strategy factors beyond equities across asset classes
- Simplify thousands of exposures across
asset classes to a set of key risk and return drivers
- Make multi-asset class portfolio
exposures easier to communicate
“The growth of factor investing has transformed the way
investors view their portfolios, underscoring the importance of
factor awareness in active portfolio management,” said Peter
Zangari, Global Head of Research and Product Development at MSCI.
“As leaders in research-driven factor and multi-asset class model
innovation, we are committed to helping our clients navigate the
complex nature of the global markets and enhance their investment
approach.”
The MSCI MAC Factor model is an innovation based on decades of
experience building factor models and feedback from hundreds of
clients representing the industry’s most sophisticated investors.
It provides investors with a consistent and holistic framework for
implementing and measuring multi-asset class investing strategies
based on commonly considered factors that influence performance.
The new model allows factor investing to go beyond equities.
