What is Investment Research?
Investment Research is about understanding companies and their business environment. Through this process we help our internal and external clients allocate their capital to achieve the best risk-adjusted investment returns possible. With over 300 equity analysts covering over 2,800 companies worldwide, Citi Investment Research is an industry leader in equity research globally. We provide clients with comprehensive research analysis of the world's economies, companies and industries, enabling them to make informed and profitable investment decisions. We also provide clients with comprehensive quantitative analysis on both an industry and company-specific level.
What services do we provide for our clients?
Our clients comprise external and internal groups. External clients include institutional investors at pension funds, unit trusts and hedge funds. Our Equity, Sales and Trading force, Private Bank, and Private Client Group form our internal constituencies.
Our client base is very diverse and their requirements vary wildly. As such, our Analysts in this area need to be highly flexible. On a given day, our Analysts may be required to give clients an immediate assessment of breaking news that is moving a company's share price, as well as provide a detailed analysis of long-term industry trends within the sector. Our Analysts must also remain in constant contact with your clients in order to provide best-in-class service.
What products/groups do we cover?
We are one of the few companies in our industry that provides full industry coverage on both a global and a regional level. This is based around the major stock market sectors including Financials, Consumer, Pharmaceuticals, Telecoms, Industrials and so on. In addition, we provide macro-analyses of markets, economies and quantitative analysis of securities. We also have teams dedicated to providing specialized research on accounting and valuation topics and on socially responsible investing.
