Smart Insider
Although the trading activity of company directors (insiders) can offer valuable clues related to future share performance, investors are unable to monitor all the relevant trades. Identifying 'Smart Insiders' through specialist desktops or quantitative feeds enables our clients to generate alpha.

Insider Transactions
The trading activity of company directors (insiders) can offer valuable clues to future share performance although most trades offer no insight at all.
To profit from insider trades investors need to screen out the ‘noise’ and focus on the most relevant trades. Identifying trades which depart from normal trading patterns and reveal a genuine conviction by insiders is our focus. Those trades are rare and cannot be identified from source data alone.
Our specialist service enables clients to generate alpha from timely delivery and analysis of trades and related factors. Backed by extensive historic research, our data ensures the truly indicative trades are brought to the attention of our clients in a timely manner with added context.
Share Buybacks
Our Company buyback data tracks and analyses the amount and value of shares bought back by listed companies (Issuers). Covering every market where share repurchases are reported, our global offering also includes ‘Buyback Announcements’ which details the Issuers stated intentions before buybacks are executed.
By comparing each companies stated intentions with their executed trades, we are able to establish patterns to help predict likely trading decisions ahead.
Our reports and alerts cut through the statistical noise to provide clients with concise, timely corporate share repurchase data tailored to their stock universe.
Director Insights
We monitor reported changes in company boardrooms as they occur, giving clients concise information on movements in Boardroom personnel. Including exact Job Titles, biographies, appointment dates, and role changes our data gives a clear profile of each Corporate Board and the changes within it.
Director biographies, salaries and the monetary value of their holdings ensures clients can establish the most influential members of a Corporate Board and track important changes in the stocks that matter most to them.
US Politicians Data
Reporting rules in the US require Congressmen and Senators to publish details of their trades in company shares globally. The data shows which politicians have a vested interest in certain stocks and when they acquired it. This helps clients see who owns the stocks of interest to them, and see a list of the stocks each individual Politician owns.
