Summary
⚫ The MSCI Israel Index was reclassified from Emerging Markets to Developed Markets coinciding with the
May 2010 Semi-Annual Index Review after a public consultation that began in July 2008.
-
The index was included in the MSCI World Index, the MSCI EAFE Index, and the MSCI Europe & Middle East Index.
⚫ On June 2012, a survey was launched as part of the MSCI 2012 Annual Market Classification Review
requesting feedback on the regional classification of the MSCI Israel Index and whether it should be part
of the European investment opportunity set.
- Based on feedback received from international institutional investors, most of them did not consider Israel to be part
of their European investment opportunity set.
-As a result, MSCI announced as part of the MSCI 2013 Annual Market Classification Review that Israel's regional
classification was to remain unchanged.
• MSCI is now seeking feedback from market participants on whether they still consider the MSCI Israel
Index as part of the Middle East investment opportunity set in terms of index inclusion or if it should be
regionally classified elsewhere.
MSCI invites feedback from market participants on or before January 31, 2022 and will announce the
results of the consultation on or before February 28, 2022. To participate in the consultation, please
provide your feedback through an online survey available on: https://www.msci.com/consultation-Israel
