MSCI Inc. (NYSE:MSCI) is looking for acquisitions. Remy Briand, Chief Product Officer and Head of Index said, "we're looking at a lot of potential acquisition. And the pace has not really slowed over the years.

So we still look at a lot of potential acquisition. It's just that going back to our Triple-Crown approach, it also applies to external acquisition. And so we want to make sure we buy the right company at the right price and also very importantly, with a good level of confidence that we can do the integration fast.

And so -- but again, if we want to grow in the private asset space, we will likely to look at acquisitions".
