ResearchPool helps institutional investors to discover and easily manage relevant external and internal research, models and market intelligence using advanced search features and personalized feeds, tags and email alerts.
ResearchPool has announced it will provide access to its solutions for investment research, content discovery, and management to IHS Markit’s customers, particularly institutional investors that need to manage sell-side and independent research.
The strategic partnership was developed as part of the shared vision to build a leading investment research community. IHS Markit is enabling institutional investors and research providers to connect to ResearchPool’s cloud-based platform.
The platform currently hosts over 2 million pieces of award-winning investment research from some 400 global providers and a community of over 20,000 registered users.
