Poor quality data brings with it significant direct and indirect costs. Inaccurate data can result in ineffective decision-making, put your company’s reputation at risk and damage client relationships. When you outsource to Raw Knowledge, your data will meet the highest quality standards and be backed by some of the best coverage in the market.  

Bespoke 

Unlike standard market data vendors, we specifically work on a given fund universe. This means your firm can get exactly the information you need in the format you want. By tailoring our efforts to your specific needs, we can help ensure the completeness of the dataset you receive. We will conduct primary research on your unique fund universe and compare numerous sources, obtaining original source documentation from issuers and fund managers, to ensure we get things right.  

Comprehensive 

Our database is regularly updated and includes historical data, meaning you have access to unparalleled coverage and unbeatable accuracy. Thanks to our numerous direct contacts, we can reach out for clarification from issuers, fund managers and HMRC alike when required to ensure all our data is up-to-date and verified. With over 25 years of experience in the financial services industry, our analysts can source the information you need – whether that’s offshore funds, bonds, equities or investment trusts.  

Rigorous 

At Raw Knowledge, employ a four-eye check every step of the way – from consuming the original data to transforming it into a firm’s required format – and ensure that each piece is stringently validated before we provide it to a client. If you’re one of our excess reportable income data (ERI) clients, your data will not only be validated but also provided in accordance with HMRC requirements, making reporting your clients’ tax liabilities easier.  

Transparent 

We’re confident in the quality of our data provision, so we will happily provide raw data at the request of any of our clients. With full data transparency, you can have peace of mind that if your clients were to question a figure, you can trace the information all the way back. This means your operational costs and risk are reduced. Our team is also always on hand to provide support and guidance for any additional queries or requests you may have, whether online or on the phone, meaning every piece of information you require is accounted for.
