MSCI Launches Insights Aiming to Streamline Investors’ Risk Management Processes

Share

MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of critical decision support tools and services for the global investment community, has announced the launch of Risk Insights, the first module of a new analytics platform, MSCI Insights, that calculates, stores, and seamlessly delivers a broad range of risk measures to help investors identify trends and respond to rapid changes in markets.

Institutional investors will be able to access a wide range of MSCI data and analytics through MSCI Insights, which will feature performance attribution, index data, ESG data, and Climate data modules. Additional MSCI Insights modules are slated for release in the fourth quarter of 2022 and in 2023.

MSCI Risk Insights automates many analysis and reporting tasks usually performed manually by risk analysts. Automation allows investors to quickly and effectively understand the overall level of risk in their portfolios, how that risk has changed, what caused the changes, and what actions can be taken to achieve their unique investment goals.

MSCI Risk Insights provides investors with historical risk data and the ability to customize a set of dashboards delivered on the cloud containing a broad set of metrics including time-series risk, factor risk, and stress tests. These data visualizations can help investors seeking to:

  • Find concentrated positions, sectors, factors, or portfolios;
  • Identify what contributed to a portfolio’s change in risk and understand the elements that drive the risk in those portfolios over time;
  • Analyze how portfolios and their risk profiles have changed over different periods and regimes; and
  • Pinpoint statistically significant outliers.

MSCI Risk Insights fully leverages the same MSCI risk analytics used by hundreds of the largest investors worldwide.

Jorge Mina, Global Head of Analytics at MSCI, said: “Investors are increasingly leveraging a wide range of analytics in their investment process. But the explosion of information available to them in the modern investing ecosystem has led risk management teams to focus on synthesizing large amounts of data to generate reports rather than deriving meaningful insights around market trends. By bringing together world-class content via cloud delivery, the risk module of MSCI Insights creates a single channel for institutional investors to not only review and house data, but also allows them to transform it into actionable information that ultimately supports a wide range of front-to-back investment activities.”

Stressed, anxious, excited – CIOs' state of mind in 2024, according to research from Expereo19.9.2024 10:03:00 CEST | Press release

Technology leaders from large global enterprises are feeling the pressure as AI becomes a major force of innovation and disruption, according to the IDC InfoBrief, commissioned by Expereo, Enterprise Horizons 2024: Technology Leaders’ Priorities on Their Digital Business Journey*, which reveals that 64% of global respondents find it challenging and/or stressful to meet the technology demands of the business, and that AI is a key source of both pressure and opportunity.
