MSCI

Xtrackers on April 8, 2026 launched the accumulating Xtrackers MSCI World IMI UCITS ETF, which tracks over 5,000 securities from developed markets (large-, mid- and small-caps) and thus covers around 99% of market capitalization. The TER is 0.15% and positions the product aggressively on price versus competitors. For investors the ETF simplifies savings plans and rebalancing; at the same time the fund size is still low at around €8 million, so inflow growth will be decisive for its viability. The ETF is part of an aggressive product strategy by Xtrackers intended to compete with Vanguard in global core portfolios. » Więcej na finanzen.net

At the Barclays conference, MSCI said the company is growing faster than the industry despite a volatile market environment, driven by AI-powered productivity, new products and expansion in private assets. Recurring net new business has risen by about 24–25% year-to-date, and new products accounted for 40% of new business wins in H1 2025. The index business and ETFs delivered strong inflows, while private-assets and analytics offerings showed accelerated revenue growth. Management expects higher short-term severance costs from restructurings but sees lower ongoing costs in the long run and an attractive pipeline for further organic growth. » Więcej na de.investing.com
