The One Where We Say Goodbye to Baer

In this special video edition of MSCI Perspectives, we sit down with MSCI President Baer Pettit for a wide-ranging exit conversation reflecting on more than 25 years of change in global markets. Baer offers his thoughts on the rise of indexation and ETFs, and the shifting balance between active and passive investing. He also examines globalization and fragmentation, the evolution of private markets and AI’s growing impact on data and decision-making. How might these forces reshape portfolios in the years ahead — and what will matter most for investors navigating the next era?
