Longbow Research

Longbow Research was established in 2003 to provide the institutional equity research market with a high quality, independent product, free from the many conflicts of interest that plagued bulge-bracket research at that time. Initially, the firm consisted only of analysts producing in-depth research on a short list of companies. In 2004, Longbow Research hired its first salespeople and also established an agency-only trading desk to facilitate client payment for the research. While this marked the beginning of our sell-side business model, we have strived to maintain our buy-side stock-picking research culture. Today, Longbow Research has moved beyond the start-up phase and is growing rapidly. We have opened offices in New York City and San Francisco and have also established an international research survey offering to cover a number of important supply channels in Europe, Latin America and Asia. While we have grown from that small group of analysts, we remain committed to our research tools and to our client's investment success.
