Research Authoring

Millions of dollars are spent creating and publishing financial research products, but are banks and research houses getting sufficient return on their investment? Are investors reading and acting upon these reports, or is the market suffering from information overload?
What can be done to reduce these high research production costs? What can be done to give you a competitive edge by making your research product stand out from the crowd?
Detica works with leading clients in the investment research domain and has done so for many years. We have a proven track record of innovation including the development of Clarity, a product suite which tackled these problems years before the technologies became available in the general marketplace. As a partner for Microsoft's release of Office 2003, which now incorporates many of the innovations first presented by Clarity, we implement client requirements using the latest Microsoft Office technologies.

What we do

Detica offers a complete range of investment research implementation services: from technical architecture and consultation through to a fully managed project implementation of the 'Agile Research' solution:
  • Authoring Environment: One that is non-intrusive and does not detract from the analyst's creativity, allowing them to focus on their research idea. For many years Microsoft Word has been the authoring tool of choice, with minimal training needed, and a well established and mature infrastructure already exists in most companies.
  • Workflow Environment: That moves the product smoothly through the business ensuring that security and access privileges are maintained, whilst improving management visibility. The indexing and storage of documents are managed transparently behind the scenes such that there is minimal impact on the author whilst retaining the ability for powerful document searching and retrieval via targeted keywords.
  • Compliance & Support Workbenches: Tailored applications that make the approval, compliance and production roles more effective by bringing together all of the information that they need to perform their job.
  • Distribution Environment: A set of differentiated consumer services that feed the right product to the right destination.
