I am the CEO and Co-founder of StockViews, a platform for the crowdsourcing of equity research. As a fund manager I was a customer of institutional research for many years but became frustrated with the poor quality of research, inherent conflicts of interest and lack of accountability. I believe that 10 years from now, there will be no place for the old model of Wall Street broking. With StockViews I set out to create a Virtual Wall Street Firm one that is meritocratic, delivers more value to the end customer and is unencumbered by high infrastructure costs. If you are an equity analyst or a fund manager and if this resonates with you, I encourage you to reach out to me here.
