Yang June 4

What Happened June Yang, a director of MSCI Inc. (MSCI), was awarded 388 restricted stock units (reported as an acquisition) on May 1, 2026. The filing shows an acquisition price of $0.00 for the 388 shares (total reported value $0). This is an award/compensation event rather than a market purchase or sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-01 — Reported on Form 4 filed 2026-05-05 (timely; within the two-business-day filing window).
• Transaction type: Award/Grant (code A) — 388 RSUs acquired @ $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in this filing.
• Footnote: RSUs vest on May 1, 2027. Under the MSCI Non-Employee Directors Deferral Plan, Yang elected to defer receipt of the shares until the earlier of June 1, 2031 or within 60 days after ceasing service as a director.

Context Restricted stock units awarded to non-employee directors are standard compensation and do not represent an open-market purchase or sale. Because Yang elected to defer delivery, the actual shares or cash will not be received until vesting and the agreed deferral date, so this filing does not directly signal immediate buying or selling activity.
