MSCI USA Risk Weighted Index

The MSCI USA Risk Weighted Index is based on a traditional market cap weighted parent index, the MSCI USA Index, which includes US large and mid cap stocks. Constructed using a simple, but effective and transparent process, the MSCI AC Asia Risk Weighted Index reweights each security of the parent index so that stocks with lower risk are given higher index weights. Historically the index has exhibited lower realized volatility in comparison to its parent index, while maintaining reasonable liquidity and capacity.
