About MSCI

MSCI helps big investors make better choices by providing market data and research. These tools let banks and fund managers track stock market performance and manage risk. The company also helps firms follow new rules for sustainable and climate-friendly investing.

What MSCI Offers

  • Index: Market tracking tools used for benchmarks and to create investment products like Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs); accounted for 57% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
  • Analytics: Risk management and portfolio tools that show how market changes affect investments; contributed 22.8% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
  • Sustainability and Climate: Data and ratings that measure how environmental and social factors impact financial returns; made up 11.3% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
  • All Other Private Assets: Research and benchmarks for investments not traded on public exchanges, such as real estate; accounted for 8.9% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Recent Growth and Strategic Moves

  • Changed the name of the ESG and Climate segment to Sustainability and Climate in early 2025 to show a broader range of products.
  • Introduced an Artificial Intelligence Upskilling Framework in 2025 to train employees on new technology tools.
  • Maintained a major licensing partnership with BlackRock, which generated 10.8% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
  • Launched AI Portfolio Insights, a tool that uses a digital chatbot to help clients understand investment risks faster.

How MSCI Stands Out

MSCI maintains a global footprint with over 6,200 employees working in 27 different countries as of December 31, 2025. The company uses advanced technology and artificial intelligence to process data for roughly 6,800 clients across more than 100 countries.

The Scorecard

  • Operating revenue rose to $822.5 million in Q4 2025, a 10.6% increase from Q4 2024.
  • Operating income grew to $463.6 million in Q4 2025, up 14.4% year-over-year.
  • Free cash flow reached $488.7 million in Q4 2025, representing a 17.4% rise from the previous year.
  • Net income dropped to $284.7 million in Q4 2025, down 6.8% from $305.5 million in Q4 2024.

Final Thoughts

MSCI has transformed from a division of an investment bank into a standalone global provider of digital tools for the financial industry. Its focus on high-recurring revenue and expansion into private assets and climate data supports its role as a central source of market information.
