Frequently Asked Questions

Our research shows that focusing on the accuracy of equity research firms over individual analysts offers more consistency and taps into a collective knowledge base. Firms provide access to broader resources, maintain internal quality checks, and ensure continuity despite personnel changes. They also offer diversified opinions, anchored by reputational stakes, making them more credible. Additionally, from a logistical standpoint, tracking the performance of a few firms is more feasible than monitoring numerous individual analysts.

Equity research is the process of analyzing a company's stock to determine its intrinsic value and investment potential. Equity research analysts use a variety of methods to conduct their analysis, including financial modeling, ratio analysis, and industry research. They also meet with company management and other experts to get a better understanding of the company's business and competitive environment.

A stockbroker is a licensed professional who buys and sells stocks on behalf of clients. Equity research analysts, on the other hand, do not buy or sell stocks. Instead, they provide research and recommendations to investors.
