Data represents the foundation of what we do at Investor Economics. The vast majority of our data is derived from a number of proprietary surveys that we conduct. Our major surveys are listed below. In a number of cases, the survey data is collected on a confidential basis. We are happy to provide participants with a confidentiality letter to validate this. We invite prospective participants in our surveys to examine them in order to better understand the wide range of data we gather. Although in most cases it is our clients that participate in these systematic data gathering initiatives, it is our practice to provide all contributors with high-level feedback in exchange for participation, with no obligation to acquire our research.  Investment Funds Industry Hedge Funds Individual and Group Segregated Funds Individual Segregated Funds: Distribution Channels and Provincial Distribution Labour-sponsored Venture Capital Funds Mutual Funds Mutual Fund Distribution Channels    Managed Money Fee-based Programs: Fund Wraps, Fee-based Brokerage, Separately Managed Wraps, Advisor Managed, In-house Managed Wraps Money Managers Personal Trust    Distribution Channels Branch Advice Deposit Brokers Financial Advisors Full-service Brokerage Profitability Full-service Brokers Full-service Brokers' Insurance Managing General Agencies Online/Discount Brokers    Other Market-linked GICs Universal Life Insurance
