Haymarket announces research JV with East & Partners

Haymarket Media Group announced today the formation of a joint-venture research business between Haymarket Asia and East & Partners. Haymarket's financial media division publishes AsianInvestor, FinanceAsia and The Corporate Treasurer.

The joint venture based in Singapore, with research resources across 10 countries, will further drive East & Partners’ research business into Asia to serve the need for independently derived measurement of key performance indicators in the business, corporate and investment banking markets.

East & Partners’ business provides an opportunity to add further, real value to client business development strategies and execution. Haymarket’s market leading position as a specialist content provider in business and finance, coupled with East’s research expertise and track record, are ideal ingredients to build a dynamic and unique new business which clients are demanding.

“Growing the added-value elements of our business is a cornerstone of the strategy for our brands in Asia, and East & Partners’ positioning in financial markets is an ideal fit for Haymarket to achieve that,” said Tim Waldron, managing director at Haymarket Asia. “We have many clients in common and the relationships are complementary, which will allow us to work with our clients on a deeper and broader base”. 

East & Partners managing director Paul Dowling also sees the synergistic benefits of the JV. “Haymarket’s Asia footprint and distribution, allied to its market presence, means that our JV will have a strong platform with high ROI values for clients. We know from conversations we have had with our own clients that it is the time is right to take the business to the next level in the region.”

The first phase of the JV continues East’s focus on the transactional banking markets with the combined venture rolling out research, analysis and forecasting services for providers in the DCM/ECM, wealth, private banking and advisory product markets during 2014, together with high-value thought leadership programmes for clients. The approach leverages East’s “voice of the customer” market analysis with Haymarket’s publishing and events platforms.
