fundamental human rights principles. Employees participate in periodic training on the Code of Ethics and its related policies. On
an annual basis, the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the MSCI Board of Directors receives a reportfrom MSCI’s Head of Compliance on the implementation of the Code of Ethics and its related policies.
