“The investment industry is continuing to experience persistent evolutionary forces, leading to buyside fee compression and meaningful cutbacks in research coverage at brokerage houses. This global dynamic is compounded by regulatory advancements such as MiFID II, which seeks to increase fee transparency for services rendered,” said John Montalbano, Chairman of Canalyst and former CEO of RBC Global Asset Management. “Canalyst provides investment firms invaluable access to accurate and granular financial data that flexibly incorporates into their analysis in a manner that lowers costs, expands addressable market coverage, and increases speed of execution.”

Canalyst was conceived by a former Fidelity analyst. The firm now serves many of the world’s largest asset managers, who trust Canalyst’s data accuracy, breadth, and adaptability to enrich and streamline their research workflow.
