Research
Working paper 01
Published research
Work that has to survive review before it reaches you.
We publish formal research with academic partners, refereed, attributable, and free to read.
01 · Papers
The programme, and what is coming.
02 · How we publish
Research first, and the product second.
Published, not marketed
A paper goes out under the institution's name and the authors', with the method and the data described well enough that somebody else could disagree with it on specifics.
Reviewed before release
Peer review and institutional sanction come first. Nothing appears here because it makes a convenient argument for the product.
Open to the people it is about
Owners, buyers, and advisors are the subject of this work and should be able to read it. Papers are free to access.
03 · Working with us
If you research private markets, we have data.
Academic work on private company valuation is held back by access: the transactions are private, the multiples are anecdotal, and the sample any one researcher can assemble is small. We have a large one.
We collaborate with university groups on research using it, on the understanding that the findings are theirs to publish whichever way they fall.
