Your Team Responsibilities

MSCI is looking for an exceptional individual to join the Private Capital Research team. The team is responsible for working across private markets (private equity, private real estate, private infrastructure and private credit). The team :

  • Meets regularly with clients to understand their needs and discuss its research
  • Designs novel methodologies to solve pressing client needs

The candidate will carry out cutting-edge research leveraging MSCI's data and provide economic context for developments in private capital.

  • Serve as liaison between other groups with MSCI Research including Index Research, other analytics researchers, and Sustainability / Climate researchers
  • Travel may be occasionally required
  • While this is not a software development role quantitative research involves regular use of tools such as R or Python

  • Excellent communication skills
  • Strong R or Python skills; proficient in SQL
  • Highly self-motivated individual with critical thinking, curiosity, and excellent communication skills
  • An advanced degree in economics, finance, financial engineering, mathematics, operations research, physics, statistics, or another quantitative discipline. PhD preferred
