A Research Management System (“RMS”) enables individuals associated with sell-side firms, buy-side firms, and/or other individuals/entities (e.g., wealth managers, corporate officers, experts, and providers and distributors of dynamic financial news reports) to create, manage, and valuate securities research. Individuals associated with a sell-side firm may generate, collaborate on, and/or publish dynamic content (e.g., assets, research reports, trade ideas) that may be tracked both internally and externally. Individuals associated with a buy-side firm may provide feedback (e.g., comments and ratings) on the sell-side content. This feedback together with other content usage metrics provide an objective measure by which buy-side firms may valuate sell-side research and other services for, among other things, determining how to allocate commissions among sell-side firms. Sell-side firms may receive selected feedback from buy-side firms on their individual performance and/or their performance vis-à-vis other sell-side firms. Sell-side firms may use the objective information they receive to better understand and appreciate how the content they generate is used and valued by their clients. |
