MSCI is a leading provider of ESG and climate data tools and solutions, and we lead by example. We are excited to announce that MSCI is partnering with the CFA Institute to make the CFA Institute Certificate in ESG Investing available for our employees globally. The course will provide fundamental knowledge for our employees looking to better understand key ESG issues and how they can integrate ESG into their daily practices to better serve the needs of our clients.

“Designed for practitioners, we believe that the CFA Institute Certificate in ESG Investing will give MSCI ways to upskill our early career starters globally. It will also help those passionate about ESG who want to join us to make an impact but sometimes miss ESG fundamentals,” said Valery Rousseau, Head of ESG Data Operations.

Nick Pollard, Managing Director, Asia Pacific, CFA Institute, said, “Amid a clear acceleration of interest in and demand for the Certificate in ESG Investing since its inception more than two years ago, CFA Institute sees a clear role for the financial sector to play in providing targeted expertise and solutions on key ESG issues to help create a sustainable future. Collaborating with a major well-respected ESG player like MSCI will enable us to equip practitioners with the knowledge and skillset to serve the needs of their clients better.”
