PitchBook Integrates Aftermarket Equity Research to Enhance Coverage of Private and Public Markets

Integration of key third-party research and redesigned research center create a powerful, all-in-one tool for industry professionals

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PitchBook, the premier data provider for the private and public equity markets, today announced enhancements to its already robust research offering with the addition of third-party equity research in the redesigned PitchBook Research Center. Users can now access institutional-grade private market, equity, credit and third-party research from contributors like HSBC in one central location, making it easier to surface timely, relevant insights to support their investment decisions. The improved Research Center features powerful search, filtering and reader view tools to streamline market analysis, due diligence and valuation workflows.

“As the private markets continue to grow and become more prominent, we’re seeing the capital pool widen and new investors gain access to private market investments. This convergence of products had made centralized access to comprehensive, data-driven insights on public and private financial markets more important than ever,” said Nizar Tarhuni, Executive Vice President of Research & Market Intelligence at PitchBook. “Our clients have come to rely on our industry-leading private market research, credit market analysis and analyst accessibility when reviewing investment strategies and managing risk. The addition of third-party equity research significantly streamlines these workflows and provides PitchBook users an unparalleled view of the entire the investment landscape.”

Through trusted third-party partnerships, PitchBook users can now leverage equity research insights on public companies, industries, and sectors to discover new investment opportunities, identify and monitor target companies, and leverage public comps to inform company valuations. Research on North America markets from Argus Research, Baptista, DA Davidson, Guggenheim and Piper Sandler is now available in the platform and analysis from Acquisdata and Lake Street will be added by the end of the year. HSBC’s equity research will also provide users in-depth insights on global regions, including Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America. The third-party research on the PitchBook Platform augments already available Morningstar Institutional Equity Research, which provides fundamental valuations, ratings and analysis on more than 1,500 public companies worldwide.

In a recent survey, 46% of users said they leverage PitchBook’s published research as part of their daily workflow and Martin Wing, Senior Vice President of Consultant Relations at Pathway Capital Management, shared that “the breadth of research that PitchBook puts together is the best I’ve seen in the industry.”

The PitchBook Institutional Research Group and PitchBook LCD comprise more than 40 global research analysts publishing trusted, data-driven insights on VC, PE and M&A asset classes, the credit and debt markets, and 31 industry and technology verticals, including artificial intelligence, healthcare services and climate tech. PitchBook’s Quantitative Research Team provide insights into current and future trends, specifically through proprietary research and tools, including VC Exit Predictor, Manager Scoring, and Portfolio Forecasting, that leverage historical data to inform forecasts.
