Entrepreneur

Rosenberg founded Barr Rosenberg Associates in Berkeley in 1975. The company developed and sold a software to use the multi-factor model for financial investments (especially stocks) developed by Rosenberg in practice. Just known in the industry as Barra , the product quickly became the de facto standard for analyzing equity portfolios. In 2004, MSCI bought what was then Barra (or Barra, Inc.).

MSCI continues to develop and sell a product called BarraOne, which is still partially based on the multi-factor model from Rosenberg.
