The Firm

Intelligence. Not information.

Zeffer Business Intelligence is a research and strategic advisory firm serving investors, executives, and boards who require analysis that goes beyond what is available in the public information ecosystem. We produce a small number of research reports each year, and take a limited number of advisory engagements. Our clients choose us because they need to be right.

Comparable to the world's leading research and consulting firms.

Our clients include chief investment officers managing portfolios in excess of $500 million, CEOs of publicly traded companies, and private equity partners navigating complex acquisition and portfolio decisions. They engage Zeffer when the conventional research available to them is insufficient—when the question is too nuanced, too current, or too consequential to be answered by a report written for general distribution.

We operate with strict independence. We take no referral fees, no placement commissions, and no advisory positions that could compromise the objectivity of our analysis. Our only obligation is to the quality of our work and the interests of the clients who commission it.
