Orient Capital teams up with financial data provider
Orient Capital, an investor relations division of link Group, has partnered with FactSet, a provider of financial data and information.
The announcement followed the recently-formed partnerships between Link Group and fintech hub Stone & Chalk, technology solutions provider Moneysoft and online document service, DocuSign.
The firm said that through the integration, it would add FactSet broker research and estimates to its online reporting platform, which was used by listed companies to manage their relationships with investors and investment community.
The partnership would also provide listed companies with access to review comprehensive earnings estimates and analyst recommendations sourced from the FcatSet Estimates database.
Link Group’s corporate markets chief executive, Paul Gardiner, said: “LinkGroup, and the Orient Capital team, are committed to exploring new innovations and partnering with companies that provide technology-enabled solutions to our clients”.
