Intro - Risk management

Risk management is evolving

Risk management teams are transforming from primarily a control-oriented function to providing risk advisory services to their investment teams. This is achieved by integrating risk analytics into investment decisions. It’s a shift that requires risk teams to not just report on risk, but also to manage it through close collaboration with investment teams.

MSCI supports this evolution with solutions that help you scale your risk infrastructure. Our risk solutions aim to provide a more holistic view of risk and deliver insights faster through automation to enable risk teams to add value to the portfolio management process.
