Alternative Data & Financial Market Intelligence

## Financial Data Services & Market Intelligence UK

We collect publicly available financial data for UK investment firms, asset managers, and funds that need cleaner, earlier, and more specific information than their competitors are working from. If you're still piecing this together manually, you already know how quickly that falls apart.

Alternative Data Categories

## Alternative Data & Financial Market Intelligence

Web & Digital Data

Investment decisions run on data quality. Full stop.

  • Website traffic and engagement metrics
  • App download and usage statistics
  • E-commerce pricing and inventory
  • Online job postings and hiring trends
  • Product reviews and ratings

Sentiment & News Data

Funds and asset managers that get to better data first have a real, measurable edge over those working from the same recycled sources as everyone else. We've been building data pipelines for UK financial services clients since 2013, and the pattern is consistent: the teams that win aren't necessarily smarter, they're working from more specific inputs than their peers.

  • News article sentiment analysis
  • Social media sentiment tracking
  • Earnings call transcript analysis
  • Regulatory filing monitoring
  • ESG news and controversies

Company Fundamentals

We work with hedge funds, proprietary trading desks, asset managers, and financial institutions across the UK and Europe, building custom extraction pipelines that feed quantitative strategies, fundamental research, and risk processes. Three of our current clients monitor Companies House filings on a daily automated basis, catching director changes and corporate restructuring events that their competitors find out about weeks later through secondary sources.

  • Companies House filings
  • Director and shareholder changes
  • Corporate structure data
  • Credit ratings and financial health
  • M&A activity tracking

Supply Chain Data

And we keep it documented. Every dataset we deliver comes with full source records and collection method notes, because your compliance team will ask.

  • Shipping and logistics data
  • Port activity monitoring
  • Supplier relationship mapping
  • Inventory level indicators
  • Manufacturing activity signals

Consumer Insights

### A Note on Regulatory Awareness

  • Foot traffic and location data
  • Consumer spending patterns
  • Brand perception tracking
  • Product launch monitoring
  • Promotional activity data

Geospatial Intelligence

We collect only publicly available information. We don't provide access to material non-public information, full stop. Clients are responsible for confirming their own use of any dataset complies with MAR, MiFID II, and applicable FCA rules, and we provide the provenance documentation to make that review straightforward., -

  • Satellite imagery analysis
  • Construction activity monitoring
  • Retail expansion tracking
  • Agricultural yield estimates
  • Infrastructure development

Market Data Services

## Alternative Data Categories

  • Securities Data: Equity prices, bond yields, derivatives data from public exchanges and platforms
  • Index Data: Global index constituents, weightings, and historical compositions
  • Corporate Actions: Dividends, stock splits, rights issues, and other corporate events
  • Reference Data: Security identifiers, company classifications, and market structure data
  • Historical Data: Time series data for backtesting and quantitative research

Data Quality & Accuracy

We source and structure alternative data across a range of categories. What follows isn't an exhaustive list, it's a representative one.

  • 99.8%+ Accuracy Rate: Multiple validation layers and cross-referencing
  • Complete Audit Trails: Full data lineage from source to delivery
  • Point-in-Time Accuracy: Historical data reflects information available at that time
  • Survivorship Bias Free: Delisted securities and historical constituents preserved
  • Consistent Formatting: Standardised identifiers and data structures

Regulatory Considerations

### Web & Digital Data

MAR Compliance

Website traffic patterns, app download and usage figures, e-commerce pricing and inventory levels pulled directly from product pages, job posting volumes and hiring trend signals, product reviews and ratings across multiple platforms. One client came to us after their in-house scraper broke during a retail site redesign and they'd lost three weeks of pricing history. We rebuilt it with proxy rotation and a headless browser setup that survives layout changes without dropping data.

GDPR Adherence

### Sentiment & News Data

Data Provenance

News article sentiment scored at scale, social media sentiment tracking, earnings call transcript extraction and analysis, regulatory filing monitoring across GOV.UK and the FCA register, ESG-related news and controversy flagging. Most of this is delivered via webhook so it lands in your system the moment we process it.

Audit Support

### Company Fundamentals

Who We Serve

Hedge Funds

Companies House filings, director and shareholder changes, corporate structure data, credit signals derived from public financial health indicators, M&A activity tracking. This is one of the areas where automated extraction genuinely changes what's possible. A human checking Companies House once a week will miss things. A cron job checking it twice a day won't.

Asset Managers

### Supply Chain Data

Investment Banks

Shipping and logistics data from public sources, port activity monitoring, supplier relationship signals, inventory level indicators derived from e-commerce and procurement data, manufacturing activity proxies. Not glamorous. But it moves prices.

Private Equity

### Consumer Insights

Corporate Strategy

Foot traffic indicators, consumer spending pattern signals, brand perception tracking across review platforms and social sources, product launch monitoring, promotional activity data. And yes, we can go back and pull historical data where it exists publicly, which matters if you're building a training dataset or backtesting a signal.

We maintain full audit trails with complete data lineage from source to delivery. Historical data reflects what was publicly available at the point in time it was collected, not what we know now.
