Stock market research


Our market research originates in risk aversion analyses on European equity markets.


These analyses are based on expected returns for European stocks covered by equity research. They derive from individual stock historical and prospective data.


There is only a short distance from risk aversion indicators to individual stock investment decision tools.


Covering such distance is the purpose of Sismo®, our market research project.

July 2015 – Valphi’s research project Sismo® awarded innovation label for asset management services by Finance Innovation.

Finance Innovation is a business and research cluster dedicated to financial services. It is sponsored by Paris financial marketplace banks, insurance companies, asset management firms, universities and research centers.
