Comprehensive Overview of External Data Sources PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 91-slide The Complete Business Transformation Toolkit PowerPoint presentation, presents a structured overview of various sources for external trend analysis, categorized by the type of information they provide and their associated costs. It lists several well-known platforms such as Bloomberg, Capital IQ, and Factiva, all of which offer paid access to company and industry data tailored for financial professionals. This indicates a focus on high-quality, reliable data for decision-making.

Free resources like Google Finance and Yahoo Finance are also included, providing essential financial data and stock price history. This suggests an opportunity for organizations to leverage cost-effective tools for preliminary analysis. The slide highlights market research aggregators, which offer paid reports containing size and share tables, essential for understanding market dynamics.

Nexis is noted for its extensive database, aggregating a vast number of sources, which can be pivotal for comprehensive research. Trade associations are mentioned as a variable source of information, indicating that the value derived from them can differ significantly by industry.

The checkmarks under various columns signify the types of information each source provides, including financial data, market share, market research, competitor information, and economic data. This visual representation allows for quick assessment of which sources to consider based on specific informational needs. The slide effectively serves as a guide for executives looking to navigate the landscape of external data sources, emphasizing the importance of both paid and free options in strategic planning.

This slide is part of the The Complete Business Transformation Toolkit PowerPoint presentation.

Developed by leading experts and best-selling authors of the 2022 ABBA Finalist 'Changing the Game - The Playbook for Leading Business Transformation', drawing on over two-decades advising organisations on strategy and transformation.
