MSCI Revised Extreme Price Increase (EPI) Screening Methodology

MSCI confirmed changes to its Extreme Price Increase (EPI) screening methodology, effective from the Aug-26 Index Review. Under the revised rules, EPI-flagged stocks with a Foreign Inclusion Factor (FIF) ≥0.75 will remain eligible for MSCI Standard Index inclusion if they satisfy all other criteria. Meanwhile, EPI-flagged stocks with FIF <0.75 will continue to face inclusion restrictions, with eligible non-constituents deferred to the next review and certain Small Cap constituents potentially removed instead of being promoted to the Standard Index if they exceed specified size thresholds. The update aims to improve the treatment of EPI stocks while maintaining index stability. (MSCI)
