Man Group and Eagle Alpha co-authored a new paper entitled "The Data on Data". In today’s day and age, data is often referred to as the oil that fuels the investment machine. Some go as far as tagging the search for alternative data as the new oil rush. We look at the data on data to find out what really matters in this new boom.

The purpose of this report is to provide buyside firms with examples of how data can be leveraged. This report is the seventh in a series of reports published by Eagle Alpha. The majority of this report is dedicated to one hundred case studies that are based on third party datasets as well as Eagle Alpha’s own proprietary datasets and analysis.

This report is the first in a series of reports published in March 2020 by Eagle Alpha on the use of alternative data to track the impact of the Coronavirus. The purpose of this report is to provide buyside funds, private equity firms, corporates, governments and central banks with examples of how alternative data can be leveraged for timely insights.
