Empirical Research Partners: Real Work

Empirical Research Partners, a broker-dealer and investment adviser, was founded in 2002 with the aim of providing high-quality, in-depth research on a broad range of topics of interest to institutional investors. We are an independent research firm serving clients worldwide, including a majority of the largest investment organizations. Since its inception our firm has consistently been recognized as a top provider of research on portfolio strategy and quantitative topics by Institutional Investor and other organizations. Research is our only line of business and our relationships with clients are consultative in nature.

We pride ourselves on the rigor and depth of our work. To the extent possible we try to understand causality and get to the root causes of market behaviors and that of individual stocks. Our views generally evolve slowly. Our philosophies have been formed over decades, and we’re continually working to improve upon them. It’s that process that makes the principles valuable. We have theories, but we prefer those supported by empirical evidence. We value practicality and common sense. Clients have chosen to work with us and recognize our efforts because we do “real work.”
