14 May 2004

Provider of equity, fixed income and hedge fund indices MSCI, announced last week that assets linked to its Hedge Invest Index have surpassed $2 billion – more than doubling in size over the last two months.

The MSCI Hedge Invest Index, separate from the MSCI Hedge Fund Indices, was launched in response to demand from investors for an investible index with weekly liquidity representing a broad range of hedge fund strategies.

The index contains more funds than any other investable index at 88, and can be licensed by a wide range of financial institutions including broker dealers, asset managers, banks and insurance companies to serve as the basis of a wide range of financial products.

Investment bank Morgan Stanley is the majority shareholder in the MSCI Hedge Invest Index, whilst the Capital Group Companies Inc., a global investment management group, is the minority shareholder.
