van Eyk, Chant West set to form industry fund research partnership
Van Eyk Research is set to ink its fourth research alliance of the year, partnering with Chant West Financial Services to provide industry super fund ratings to clients.
No more details of the alliance were available at presstime.
In February, van Eyk outsourced qualitative research on the top 200 Australian companies to Aegis Equities Research, and established an agribusiness research partnership with a specialist in that area, Adviser Edge Investment Research.
These were followed in April by a research alliance with Managed Investment Assessments, a specialist researcher of listed and unlisted, local and global property funds.
