In recent years, the financial landscape has witnessed a seismic shift with the proliferation of alternate data sources, reshaping how investment professionals analyze markets, assess risks, and uncover opportunities.
Traditionally, investment decisions heavily relied on traditional financial metrics, economic indicators, and company-specific data; however, the rise of alternate data marks a pivotal evolution.
This turned out to be a lively webinar – the marker of that is always that there were questions from the participants that could not be addressed even after an overflow. You can view the webinar here: link
Special thanks to the founding team at Thurro – we have done some fantastic work over the years on alternate data and this presentation benefitted greatly from their inputs and insights.
The future, as I say in the presentation, is AD + AI => alternate data coupled with artificial intelligence.
As conventional data gets priced in, the alpha edge will come from alternate data. Go forth and conquer!
