EQUITY & BOND RESEARCH

Our client base counts a number of major investment banks and brokerage firms.

For these, we have translated tens of thousands of pages of equity and bond research, in a variety of formats:

Morning faxes/news
'Flash' reports and 1-pagers
Company-specific research papers
Industry-wide research reports
Strategic and economic reviews

Because some of these products have a very short shelf-life, our internal organization is tailored to react to market announcements and events, and translate quickly a large quantity of information. Typical turnover rate would be 1,500 words within the next 2-3 hours.

Longer shelf-life reports present other challenges. As the analyst delves into the technologies used or developed by the business under review, we have to query multiple sources of information in order to achieve technical accuracy. And even longer term research notes are subject to deadlines: printing schedules, black-out periods, road shows, etc.

Bond research is a very different specialty from equity research, and not all financial translators are knowledgeable in this area. With years of experience in translating weekly bond reviews, we have developed a bond market expertise our client banks feel very comfortable with. Typical bond market weekly reviews can be turned over with 48 hours.

Deadlines and constraints are typically established at the beginning of a relationship with a client, and evolve over time.
