"Our community has downloaded tens of thousands of research reports"
Last year we launched our annual Research Tree Analyst Rankings, showing the most in-demand analysts covering the majority of UK-listed small and mid-caps.
Since Research Tree began, we've created a platform that has attracted plenty of serious investors and many of the key Brokers at our end of the market.
Our community of investors has downloaded tens of thousands of research reports covering all sectors. So again, we wanted to see which analysts were the most in-demand based on the number of downloads across our platform in the 2017 calendar year.
How are the rankings shown?
We've published the Top 10 analysts across the entire UK market, as well as the Top 5 or Top 3 analysts for each sector. Our rankings are determined by the level of demand for each analyst's work and are based on real, tangible data taken from Jan-Dec 2017.
Why is it important for Investors?
Top analysts shape the way markets thinks about both valuation and risk. These rankings show which analysts were most in-demand over 2017, and who you should be keeping an eye on in 2018.
So, who topped the list? Let's find out...
