Alternative Data
Finding Valuable Data Beyond Conventional Sources
Relevant information is not always available through standard databases, traditional research providers or public reports.
NAIN searches for specialised, uncommon and difficult-to-find datasets that can provide greater visibility into industries, markets, technologies and commercial activity.
We begin with the information the client needs and identify potential data sources that may help answer the question. We assess their relevance, coverage and potential value before defining the most suitable form of access.
Depending on the assignment and the rights available, NAIN may introduce a data provider, arrange or resell access to a dataset, license data for commercial distribution, or extract and deliver the relevant information in the form of a focused intelligence product.
From Data Access to Information Value
A client may not always need the complete dataset.
In some cases, the real requirement is the information or insight that can be obtained from it. NAIN can therefore provide access to the underlying data or use the available data to produce a specific analytical output.
Our objective is to connect the client's question with the information capable of answering it.
Technology-Enabled Analysis
NAIN uses data-analysis tools and large language models to organise, classify and examine information from different sources and formats.
These technologies help us identify relationships, recurring signals and potentially relevant findings more efficiently. The resulting analysis is directed and reviewed around the client's specific requirement.
