Finjitsu Research -- Wall St. Stock Research for Self-Directed Investors. Many Publishers. One Place. Small-Cap Focus.

Chicago, Illinois - January 3, 2013 -

Finjitsu Research, the exclusive curator of fundamental, small and mid-cap Wall Street equity research, today announced the beta launch of its online marketplace; this offering allows self-directed investors to add an additional layer of sophistication to their research process by utilizing professional investment research, from multiple publishers, in an easy to use web application.  For investors who prefer a more personal interaction, Finjitsu Research can also provide a direct connection to Wall St. Analysts in a phone or online-chat format. 

Finjitsu Research is the first company to create a research platform for advisors and individual investors that is focused on providing quick and easy access to hard-to-find investment research.  Historically, most large brokerage and independent research firms have focused on providing information that appeals to the mass market; consequently, their coverage universes tend to be heavily weighted towards mid and large-cap securities.  Finjitsu Research has established exclusive partnerships with regional investment banks and independent firms who have a niche equity research footprint;  these firms tend to focus on providing fundamental research on small and mid-cap stocks, which are covered by fewer fundamental analysts and for which timely research is harder to find.  In addition, approximately 25% of the research offering includes coverage of popular large cap stocks. 

By aggregating many of these firm's research libraries and coverage universes, Finjitsu Research is able to provide a cost effective and robust research offering that rivals the largest investment banks.  At present, Finjitsu provides access to a growing library of research on more than 800 individual stocks from a variety of research firms across the country.  "The growing trend toward self-directed investing can't be overlooked," said Lee Wolf, Founder of Finjitsu Research.  "There is a very large group of intelligent, web savvy, self-directed investors who are demanding a more sophisticated outfit of qualitative and quantitative resources.  We didn't want to be 'another research tool' that oversimplifies complex ideas; We want to invigorate the fundamental equity research process by being complementary to existing resources."

Access to the complete research suite is now available, and at a discounted price during the beta launch.  The Company expects to launch a full version of the platform in the first quarter of 2013.
