THE EMIS ADVANTAGE

COMPANY INTELLIGENCE

A UNIQUE AND POWERFUL DATABASE

15

EMIS has built a database with detailed information for 1.3 million private and listed companies

Private company information in emerging markets is notoriously hard to obtain.

Users are able to search and screen this database for companies that fit their target profile

BREAKING DOWN OBSTACLES TO INFORMATION

16

GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND IN INDIA

17

Obtaining large scale information on private companies in India is very difficult. We have overcome this barrier by researching each of the top 35,000 Indian companies based on share capital. We have now built a unique database of the top 25,000 Indian companies by revenue with financial information for the past two years.

CREATING OUR “GLOBAL STANDARD”

Colombia India

South Africa

Poland Vietnam

Mexico

Chile

Indonesia

Russia

Different countries have different reporting standards. This creates a challenge for anyone looking to make reasonable comparisons between company financials in multiple markets. EMIS publishes information both “as reported” in the local market but also applies a “Global Standard” that presents a common set of company accounts information across countries. This allows for easy comparison of data points such as assets and liabilities.

QUALITY IS ASSURED

We bring together the world’s most trusted providers of country intelligence and analysis on emerging markets.
