Our take
In an uber competitive equity market, investors of all stripes are looking for different ways to find an edge over their peers. For B2C companies with a great deal of activity, one such method is driving insights from consumer data. And Consumer Edge is responding to this increasing demand for accurate, timely consumer spending data.
The company is focused on providing best-in-class alternative data products and tools. On top of these alternative data-sources, the company delivers boutique insights, data feeds and templates to ensure actionable insights can be derived in a timely fashion.
Consumer Edge is also seeking inorganic growth through targeted acquisitions of competitors in the space. For example, an acquisition of German-based Qentis has boosted their client base considerably, and acquiring Earnest Analytics supports expanded innovation efforts. This strategic push both expands its global footprint and positions Consumer Edge for long-term growth.
