Kathleen Winters, Chief Financial Officer of MSCI Inc. (NYSE:MSCI) said, "However having some firepower to do things like potentially consider acquisitions or inorganic activity on a case by case basis as well as having the capacity to do share repurchase to the extent it makes sense. That's what we want to be able to do and have the capacity to do that. From an acquisition standpoint, you asked how we're thinking about that. We have a pretty active pipeline in terms of looking at potential opportunities but let me just share how we are thinking about it right now."
