Corporate Insight is a market research and consulting firm with more than 10 years' experience, specializing in delivering competitive intelligence to the global financial community. Prior to 1993, financial services firms were forced to operate in the dark when it came to understanding competitors and their product offerings. Without direct access to accounts at other firms, it was nearly impossible to understand the customer experience and/or recognize when new initiatives were being launched. Founder and CEO Peter Ellison quickly identified and successfully filled this information gap by opening accounts with a variety of leading Wall Street firms and launching Corporate Insight's first syndicated study - Broker Monitor - to offer subscribers a first-hand view of the customer experience and unfettered access to what firms were doing in terms of their marketing efforts.
