Global investment bank Lazard Freres has partnered with
Nucleus Research to provide investors with IT return on
investment research.
Lazard's clients, which include hedge funds and other investment
banks, will be able to access research analysing the ROI of IT
supplier products, as well as case studies that assess the returns
customer companies have obtained from IT investments.
Under the Equity Research Service, Lazard clients will be able
to purchase annual subscriptions to Nucleus Research ROI reports,
including case studies and vendor profiles. Lazard customers that
subscribe to the service will get bi-monthly electronic newsletters
from Nucleus and have access to Nucleus analysts.
Erick Brethenoux, a vice president at Lazard Freres in New York,
said the company considered other research firms but decided that
the information provided by Nucleus was "geared more for financial
investors".
