Methodology

The MSCI Hedge Invest IndexSM is designed to be both investable and to reflect the overall structure and composition of the hedge fund universe.
The composite-level MSCI Hedge Invest Index includes funds from a wide range of hedge fund investment strategies available on a third party hedge fund platform. Eight new strategy level indices subdivide the MSCI Hedge Invest Index, contain funds with weekly liquidity and are designed to be licensed for use as a basis for tradable investment products. The overall number of funds in the indices is expected to increase over time as the platform expands.
A factsheet containing further details of the MSCI Hedge Invest Indices can be found here.

The MSCI Hedge Invest Indices are constructed according to the MSCI Investable Hedge Fund Index Methodology which provides a general framework for construction of investable hedge fund indices.
