In some ways, data are like gold ore – of little worth in bulk, but of enormous value when refined into useful information. Making some information public would lower or eliminate its value, like trade secrets. In other cases, the value of the information depends upon how well-known it is, like a photo on Instagram or a video on YouTube.
Such information represents a liability for financial services firms – in other words, it has a negative value. Further muddying these waters is the question of veracity. Fake news is worse than no news at all.

High inflation has returned in developed markets after decades of lying low. In our latest paper, we show how to build an inflation-based asset allocation strategy using sentiment data and we illustrate that sentiment-based strategies outperform models that depend merely on past observed inflation values.
This year's RavenPack Research Symposium brought two intense days of knowledge sharing in London and New York, from 25 top experts in natural language processing, quantitative investing and machine learning. Together, we explored how firms can leverage new language models to generate alpha, better manage risk and respond to calls for more sustainable investment practices.
Human capital is at the heart of value creation. Our latest research demonstrates how unprecedented workforce insights, sourced from over 200 million job postings, can generate more alpha.
