For Independent Researcher Providers
First Coverage provides an awarding-winning, web-based technology called The Community. An ultimate efficiency tool, it combines the features and functionality of an alpha capture system, a media sentiment engine and a meeting management tool that allows you to demonstrate your strengths in real time and be recognized for the quality of your work, not the size or location of your firm.
Get Noticed
With First Coverage, you can obtain introductions and gain the attention of buy-side firms willing to pay for valuable information.
Be discovered by portfolio managers searching First Coverage for specific characteristics, performance, or areas of expertise where you are able to add value.
Targeted Communications
You control which firms and which people are able to see your information. Monitor and adjust your posted trade ideas and easily notify portfolio managers when your opinions change.
You can even identify your highest-conviction ideas and send the details exclusively to your clients, in complete confidentiality. Only the recipients you choose will receive your information.
Easy to Keep Track
Tracking your communications with the buy-side is effortless. Access key details any time you need to, including lists of all ideas sent and their average returns.
You can also enter "stop" or "target" prices for specific ideas and let the ideas automatically close — even if you're out of the office. These prices can be changed or removed at any time.
Monitor Your Performance
The Community allows you to compare your performance, in terms of absolute returns, relative to your peers on the platform – those within your firm and from competitive organizations – on a month-to-date, quarter-to-date or year-to-date basis.
And when you have a truly exceptional year, you could be recognized as a top performer with First Coverage’s “Top Performer Awards.”
These rankings are derived from hundreds of thousands of actionable sell-side trade ideas communicated by thousands of sales people at hundreds of firms that participated on the First Coverage alpha capture system and represent the only completely objective evaluation of the sell-side. As such, they are highly regarded by the buy-side as an indicator of who to seek advice from when making investment decisions.
Are you getting the attention you deserve? Whether your firm is large or small, First Coverage makes sure you get noticed by the portfolio managers who would most value your information.
