MSCI Service Name Changes
MSCI Service Name Changes
MSCI may change the name of the Services it provides to its clients from time to time. This may result in clients receiving communications from MSCI that use a different (i.e., new) Service name versus the Service name that is stated on client contracts, including any Schedules, Addenda or Order Forms. Clients should update their use of Service Names in their materials, including any disclosures, disclaimers, badges and other documentation.
The following table outlines the Service name changes that MSCI has made since mid-2025. Future dates listed below are the target dates that we anticipate future name changes will become effective and are subject to change.
