MSCI announced today (July 23) the launch of the MSCI Private Capital Index Series, advancing the company's commitment to promoting transparency and innovation in the global private capital market. The Private Capital Index Series is based on a composition of private capital funds with a total market value of over $11 trillion, using MSCI's transparent methodology and rigorously validated data. The series consists of 130 indexes covering private equity, private credit, private real estate, private infrastructure, and private natural resources, not only complementing MSCI's existing over 80 physical asset fund and real estate indexes, but also providing investors with a comprehensive view to understand the risk categories of the global private capital market and private physical asset investments. With increasing interest from investors in the private capital market, obtaining high-quality data and using uniform standards to measure the performance of private capital funds and portfolios is crucial for making clear investment decisions. Based on its independence and expertise in improving transparency across asset classes and introducing data and solutions, MSCI has developed the Private Capital Index Series to meet the needs of investors. These private capital indexes complement MSCI's stock and fixed income indexes, providing investors with a diversified asset perspective for their portfolios. Institutional investors can use these indexes to meet their unique investment mandates and achieve their long-term financial goals. Additionally, this index series will provide asset owners with in-depth insights to help them achieve strategic asset allocation. Henry Fernandez, Chairman and CEO of MSCI, stated that investors need tools to navigate the complex private capital market and seize new investment opportunities. MSCI's Private Capital Index Series is built on high-quality and validated data, as well as industry-leading index methodology, allowing investors to clearly understand their investment situation.
