Calculate your MSCI Dividend Returns

Quickly and easily calculate MSCI dividend yield using our MSCI calculator. Adjust the fields below to see how your MSCI investments snowball over time.

Initial Investment: The lump sum you’re investing on day 1. Share Price: The current market price of one share. Dividend Amount (per payout): Enter the dividend paid per share each payout (e.g., quarterly for many ETFs). Annual yield is computed from this and the selected frequency. Dividend Frequency: How often you receive dividends (e.g. quarterly). Dividend Growth Rate: The yearly increase in dividend payouts (as a percentage). Share Price Growth: Expected annual increase in share price over time. Extra Investment: The amount you invest regularly (e.g. each month). Extra Invest Frequency: How often your extra investment is made (e.g. monthly). Length of Investment: How long you plan to keep investing and compounding.

Show Idealized Scenario (Assumes all future extra investments and dividends are made on Day 1 and reinvested instantly — this creates a best-case scenario for compounding growth.)

MSCI Dividend Reinvestment Snowball

Investing $10,000 + $100/mo in MSCI with historic price growth (23.16%) and dividend growth (23.39%) produces dramatically different outcomes depending on whether you reinvest dividends.

Milestones on the way

By year 13, the compounding really starts to show. Your total dividends collected reach $12,726 against a total investment of $25,600. At this point, your portfolio is throwing off $3,473 per year in dividends alone.

By year 17, the annual dividend climbs to around your initial contribution. For a starting investment of $10,000, the yearly dividend now sits at approximately $8,541, a powerful “income on autopilot” milestone.

After two decades, cumulative dividends total $65,722 versus $34,000 invested, nearly a 193% recovery of capital purely from income. Yield on cost reaches 49.10%.

At year 25, the income engine takes over. The portfolio’s annual dividend of $50,827 is greater than total contributions to date ($40,000), and cumulative dividends exceed $203,291.

By year 30, the DRIP snowball is in full force. Yearly income reaches $154,536, cumulative dividends total $621,705, and the DRIP portfolio value stands at $11,428,852, compared with $8,658,436 if dividends weren’t reinvested.

How we estimate these numbers

We use the latest calculator inputs for MSCI, price $562.74, dividend per period $1.80 (4x/year), along with historic growth assumptions: price growth 23.16% and dividend growth 23.39% annually.

We simulate month by month for 30 years. Every month, a $100 contribution is added and converted to shares at that month’s price. Dividends are paid roughly evenly across the year based on the dividend frequency; in the DRIP path, each payout immediately buys additional shares at the then-current price. In the No-DRIP path, dividends accrue as cash. Prices grow using a monthly rate derived from the annual price growth. Dividends per share increase once per year at the annual dividend growth rate.

This model isn’t investment advice; it’s a simple, transparent framework that illustrates how reinvesting dividends can accelerate both income and total return over time.

Projected Future Returns & Dividends for MSCI

Based on past 10-year performance, here are MSCI growth metrics:

Share price CAGR of +10.89%

Dividend CAGR of +24.57%

Using MSCI CAGR metrics, we can estimate that your initial $10,000 investment, over the next 10 years, should grow as follows:

	MSCI (DRIP)	MSCI (No DRIP)
Current Price	$559.59	$559.59
Start Shares	17.87	17.87
Start Value	$10,000	$10,000
After 10 years:
Final Share Count	23.04	17.87
Dividends Payment	$64.80	$64.80
Annual Dividends	$1,434	$1,158
Yield on cost	14.34%	11.58%
Share Price	$1,573.11	$1,573.11
Total Dividends	$5,966	$5,218
