RSUs financial

"1 share is attributable to the Reporting Person's unvested RSUs and remains subject to the same vesting conditions"

RSUs, or restricted stock units, are a form of company shares given to employees as part of their compensation. They are typically awarded with certain restrictions, such as a waiting period before they can be fully owned or sold, similar to earning a gift that becomes fully yours over time. For investors, RSUs can impact a company's stock offerings and reflect how much the company relies on stock-based incentives to attract and retain talent.

Non-Employee Directors Deferral Plan financial

"Pursuant to the MSCI Inc. Non-Employee Directors Deferral Plan, the Reporting Person has elected to defer receipt of 1 share"

separation from service financial

"Shares acquired by the Reporting Person in connection with MSCI Inc.'s payment of a dividend"

A dividend is a payment that a company gives to its shareholders, usually from its profits. It’s like a bonus or reward for owning the company's stock, and it can provide a steady income stream for investors. Companies pay dividends to share their success with the people who own their stock.
