I'm looking for a free data source of historical performance data of the MSCI world Value- and Growth index. The data should be calculated with reinvested dividends.
1 Answer
This is available directly from MSCI's website: MSCI End of Day Index Data Search. If you click on an index name, you can download the entire history.

$\begingroup$ @BaptisteWicht as of 2023, that link doesn't require flash, anymore. That means I can navigate it and download historic index data via Firefox. However, with Firefox I have to use a private window since perhaps the page isn't compatible with my ad blocker (uBlock Origin). Also, surprisingly, the site doesn't work with Chromium, for me. That means when I select 'reject all' (unnecessary) cookies there, the main page view is empty. If I allow all cookies I get an index list but when I select a certain index the load-screen never goes away. In a private window, where addons are disabled that is. $\endgroup$ Jul 16 at 18:20
