Synopsis
At the end of August 2022, India moved to the second spot in the MSCI emerging market (EM) index with a weight of 14.483% replacing Taiwan according to the data from Bloomberg. India now trails China, which accounts for over a third of the weight in the benchmark index. The MSCI EM index is widely tracked by global fund managers for fund allocation.
ET Intelligence Group: The latest improvement in India’s weight in the MSCI Emerging Market index is expected to prompt active as well as passive investors to increase allocation to the fastest-growing economy in the world. This may support the performance of Indian benchmark indices in the near term amid rising volatility in the global market.
