Published February 2025. In this episode of "What's the Risk?" we take a look at the historic performance of the MSCI World ex Australia Quality Index. Some people would know an ETF that seeks to track the performance of this index as VanEck's QUAL ETF.

We look at the definition of quality by MSCI and Peter discusses how that compares to the profitability factor. The index itself draws from MSCI World ex Australia, so we compare the performance of the two indices since December 1994.

If we take MSCI's screen for quality, there certainly appears to have been a premium attached to it over this time period.
