Research Methodology
We form a hypothesis on the company’s actual business from financial analysis using public fillings. This hypothesis informs our research approach, which includes site visits, channel checks with clients, suppliers, distributors, and competitors of the target company. Our final phase is to write up a report and have it checked for compliance with SEC, SFC and Chinese regulations. We have a collaborative work environment. Each project involves a team of people with different skills that help us to find and evaluate original information and ideas about the target.
