Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) is thinking of putting Pakistan in MSCI-FM (frontier markets) from emerging markets.
The rationale of Morgan Stanley of thinking of Putting Pakistan in MSCI-FM is based on falling below thresholds of emerging markets. Now, Pakistan may be back in the Frontier Markets with a higher weight of 2.3% from the existing 0.02% in Emerging Markets. Furthermore, Pakistan’s weight in the widely tracked Frontier Market 100 Index will now be 5.8% – OGDC has been included in MSCI Pakistan Standard Index.
These standards are very important for attracting foreign investors. These indices and standards allow investors to gauge the investment potential of a country.
