The global research settlement in the US in 2003 (and the Myners Report in the UK) changed the landscape of the securities research industry considerably. With sell-side firms forced to account for soft-dollar payments for research and eliminate the bias by additionally providing independent research to their clients, Independent Research Providers (IRPs) quickly emerged as a dominant feature on the securities trading map. Today, IRPs need to have a large coverage universe even as they struggle to keep costs under control.

While IRPs maintain their 'independence' in recommendations, scaling up during the earnings season for faster turnaround without increasing budgets, has become a key challenge. At Aranca we understand these issues, and help solve them profitably for our IRP clients.

We have a large and growing team of experienced analysts with deep knowledge of a wide range of industries and geographies. We provide scalable, customized and on-demand research, and can also recruit and train specialist dedicated analyst teams. Our clients, some of whom are leading IRPs in Europe and the US, benefit from our robust internal processes that ensure quick turnaround times without compromising on quality.
