The index includes a collection of stocks of all the developed markets in the world, as defined by MSCI. The index includes securities from 23 countries but excludes stocks from emerging economies making it less worldwide than the name suggests. A related index, the MSCI All Country World Index (ACWI), incorporated both developed and emerging countries.
The MSCI World Index has been calculated since 1969 in various forms: without dividends (Price Index), with net or with gross dividends reinvested (Net and Gross Index), in both US dollars and local currencies.
