MSCI, which provides market benchmarks and other measures of
investment returns, is making use of AI to help investors to spot
and manage risks to portfolios more easily.
The new offering is called MSCI AI Portfolio Insights. It blends
artificial intelligence with MSCI’s analytics tools and advanced
modelling technologies.
MSCI AI Portfolio Insights merges generated text with modern
dashboards and cloud-based technology to enhance communication
and efficiency in risk and portfolio management.
“Institutional investors both can and must shift their risk teams
from being largely control-oriented to also being an
investment-focused function,” Ashley Lester, chief research
officer at MSCI, said. “With MSCI AI Portfolio Insights, we
are transforming risk reporting to make it more insightful and
more accessible to investment decision makers.”
The group also has rolled out the Macro Finance Analyzer today.
This is designed to test how changes to macroeconomic conditions
– for instance rate hikes and cuts – could affect a
portfolio’s risks and returns across asset classes, such as
equities and bonds.
