The Library has approved a subscription to S&P Capital IQ. Capital IQ is widely used in industry and combines deep global company information, credit ratings and research and market research with tools for risk assessments. It provides access to both real-time and historical information and:
• Global Company Data: financials, fixed income, estimates and ownership
• Qualitative Data: key developments, transactions, profiles, people, relationships, private equity
• Macroeconomic and commodity data
Content and coverage is similar to Bloomberg, Eikon or Datastream but with the advantage of multiple user access online and offsite. This accessibility makes it a perfect choice for classroom teaching. Staff and students also have access to support resources within Capital IQ and can contact Capital IQ specialists direct for assistance.
Capital IQ will be available from September 2018 from the Library A-Z list of databases. If you would like a preview now, please contact hub@business-school.ed.ac.uk for a trial account.
