Smart Data Platform: Leveraging research and big data to solve problems

There’s a new eco-system of partners in Singapore that have created a platform that provides research and analysis. But it’s not the run-of-the-mill PDF distribution site: it integrates analysis with an interactive smart data platform.  Customers could take advantage of traditional research and plug in information that applies their views and portfolios to the analyst’s scenario so they don’t require one-on-one calls.  This will be particularly valuable in our new MiFID II regulatory environment where research has to be monetised.

• How does this platform work commercially and technologically?
• What user-specific data questions can it answer in the context of research?
• What is its market scope: Singapore, ASEAN? More in the cards?
• Who is working together to do this? What’s the depth and breadth of the content and experience?
• How is this packaged and sold as a service?
