Methodology

The data development evolved from research methods originally established by the founder of the company.

 

Through the years, a research methodology evolved based on strict guidelines used to build and maintain the content of six proprietary business and industry databases:

  • An industry trends database
  • An industry statistics database
  • Industry Analytics (deep financial data for hundreds of Industry codes)
  • A leading companies database
  • A business and industry glossary database
  • An industry associations and professional societies database
  • Analysts are trained to follow research formulas and methodology. They use company-approved sources in their work and post their findings daily to proprietary databases. All research results go through multi-step editing processes. And, all results are date-stamped.
Primary sources include:
  • Internal research, analysis, fact-checking and data gathering by the Research staff.
  • Over 3,500 industry associations, professional societies and government agencies worldwide with which the publisher maintains relationships and/or from which they obtain industry-specific/country-specific data.
  • Financial analysts, industry executives and industry experts with whom the publisher maintains communications.
  • Corporate disclosure documents and financial statements.
  • Industry conference proceedings.
  • Analysis of white papers, reports, periodicals and publications.
  • Multiple proprietaries, government, industry and financial databases developed by the publisher.
