Your team responsibilities

Accounting Data Analysts are responsible for the continuous maintenance and development of MSCI's Accounting Data Service offered to clients invested in public and private markets by accurate and timely data processing.

Accounting Data Analysts are tasked with acquiring a deep understanding of clients' accounting needs.

The Analyst is responsible for sourcing client accounting data from investor portals, custodian banks, third party providers, managers, and directly from clients on a regular basis.

The data is then analyzed, mapped, and reorganized in preparation for upload to the platform.

The majority of work is performed using MS Excel upload templates, which are used for more rapid and accurate processing of large amounts of data, as opposed to manual data entry.
