Smartkarma has launched Premium Services, a suite of value-added services including, analyst calls, corporate access, financial modelling and bespoke research.
The launch follows the recent announcement of Smartkarma’s expansion across Europe and the US.
The new service provides buy-side firms with second Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II) research services, allowing them to work with all insight providers across the network “without any fear of inducement”.
As part of the new service, clients can also access Insight Providers, where they can gain knowledge on a specific topic, or check newly formulated trading ideas.
Jon Foster, co-founder of Smartkarma, said: “The finance industry is seeing unprecedented change and traditional bank-led models for research coverage and analyst interaction is no longer enough.”
He added: “The market wants more access to independent research that is compliant and actionable. Premium Services delivers this in a new and innovative way, allowing asset managers to dive deeper into the written ideas on Smartkarma and their next investment.”
Premium Services is now live across the Smartkarma platform and the service will also be available to European focused Insight Providers joining the platform this year.
