Unlocking the Upside #16: Insights from InsightOne

Get smarter: New insights, new tech and content updates

Table of Contents

Morning, Afternoon, and Evening all,

As usual, we’ve got some great new content that is now live. We’ve looked deeply at Thesis Maps, the application gap between DCF and Multiples, and multi-asset investing. We’ve also just launched our new Digital Flashcards, which are very cool.

10x at #1: We will take that

Eighteen months after leaving UBS, I received news that left me a little lost for words: Fundamental Analytics has once again claimed the #1 spot in the Institutional Investor rankings (now rebranded as Extel). This marks our 10th time at the summit (across II and Extel), a milestone that calls for celebration. While we may be considered niche, what truly humbles me is the extraordinary circumstances of this victory. Despite not authoring any research, engaging with clients, or even appearing on the ballot, a significant number of clients took it upon themselves to write us in and cast their votes.

Let that sink in for a moment…

This unexpected triumph isn't just a win; it's a resounding affirmation of our work's enduring value. Moments like these remind me why we do what we do here at theinvestmentanalyst.com and through our InsightOne digital platform.

To say I'm grateful would be an understatement. This is more than an accolade—it's a powerful reminder that true excellence echoes long after you've left the stage.

Best wishes
