Company Research Service
For Investment Professionals

This service saves the licensed investment professional time and energy by having us do the research in finding companies that match a particular set of personal values. We provide company specific assessments and information related to the personal values that have been provided.

Please note though, that our personal values based assessments are not to be construed as investment opinions.

For a sample report, see Whole Foods Market.

This service is offered in one of two ways, either:

1) BASIC SERVICE – we are asked to do some specific research on a company or industry.

OR

2) COMPREHENSIVE SERVICE – we provide the client with a list of public companies in any specified industry that reflects a given set of subjective personal values of interest to the client.

This is how the process works. (Please note we have guidelines and information to help the client at every step along the way.)

  • The client defines the subjective values of interest to them. Then selects the industries they are interested in.
     
  • We get back to the client with information of companies in those industries.
     
  • The client selects 2 or 3 companies in each industry.
     
  • We then do the research on those companies and forward to the client all relevant source and background information.
     
  • We show the client how to review the information we have provided with respect to the personal values given to us -- using a unique tool called the "Robins Life-Benefiting Scale." This provides a SUBJECTIVE quantitative measure for each company selected. 

This is a unique service and to our knowledge is not offered anywhere else. For fees and details, please call 705-635-3034 or request information by using our Contact Us form.
