Regulatory and government policy dynamics play a dominant role in shaping investment outcomes and may represent 50% of total risk in emerging and frontier markets. Existing data is poor for analyzing specific investment opportunities. Data are at the macro level or summarize laws on the books, not the reality on the ground. Foglamp instantly provides its private clients with a global research team of more than 800 experts in 100-plus countries, offering clients the ability to define and control bespoke research services. Foglamp doesn’t sell off-the-shelf reports. Rather, it provides flexible access to its network of hand-picked, on-the- ground experts that clients can choose to engage in whatever way they find most useful, including brief email updates, analytic memos, email and instant message conversations with on-the-ground experts, standing topic watchlists, and much more. Our insight yields proprietary intelligence to identify unforeseen risks as well as undervalued opportunities.
Foglamp is ideal for regulated industries in emerging and frontier markets such as:
- Energy and Infrastructure
- Healthcare
- Telecommunications
- Defense and Security
- Natural resource extraction
Foglamp delivers proprietary real-time insights into the country-, sector-, and deal-specific issues of regulation, market dynamics, governance, and transparency that have a major impact on investments. Foglamp information empowers clients by offering insights that can only be gathered on the ground in foreign markets by local experts who know the players, the language, and the way business gets done.
