Our information comes directly from many sources. Our core advantage
remains Investor Economics’ exclusive access to data from the majority
of Canada’s financial services powerhouses: our clients. Add to that
our mix of information originating from industry associations, foundations,
think-tanks, government agencies and individual authorities, and the
end result is relevant, sifted and ultimately conclusive.
The Investor Economics team integrates and interprets these various
data sources using the latest in customized data-retrieval hardware
and software, all focused on a concise yet engaging thesis that predicates
every study we undertake. Our findings customarily radiate through
the media and the entire financial services marketplace. Incisive,
accurate and useful, Investor Economics doesn’t deal in the currency
of opinion, but rather in informed projections and strategic implications.
Our goal is to not only provide our clients with a clear and comprehensive
snapshot of their industry, but to indicate how companies—or you—may
adapt to the changes taking place in the financial services industry.
Investor Economics was founded in 1992 by Earl Bederman, the president
of the firm, and his key colleagues, Goshka Folda and Ray Liu. In
identifying a knowledge gap in the industry, they redefined the need
for a creative, fact-based way of analyzing the drivers that propel
the radically evolving financial services marketplace.
More than that, the Investor Economics team envisioned and implemented
a service that would be useful to all, yet uniquely customized to
each client’s needs. Our synthesized knowledge is our clients’ power.
The reports generated by Investor Economics are analyzed and interpreted
by a dedicated team of seasoned visionaries whose job it is to observe
new trends and define new ways of looking at the marketplace.
