India’s weightage in the MSCI Global Standard (Emerging Markets) index has reached a historic high of 18.2% following MSCI’s February review. This surge, nearly doubling since November 2020, is attributed to various factors such as standardized foreign ownership limits, sustained domestic equity rally, and relative underperformance of other emerging markets, particularly China.
India’s robust performance suggests the potential for further growth in its weightage. With continued inflows from domestic institutional investors and steady participation from foreign portfolio investors, India could surpass a 20% weight in the MSCI Global Standard index by early 2024.
