Streamlining News Article Review and Market Commentary Creation

Objective 

• Our platform is built to help financial researchers drastically reduce the time spent reviewing news articles, enabling the efficient compilation of daily market commentaries. By providing a single-page view of all relevant articles and generating a template email with links to key pieces, the platform simplifies the process of gathering insights for more detailed analysis.
• Additionally, the platform imports and updates a calendar of critical economic events—such as central bank rate meetings, employment reports, and other key indicators—showing both consensus forecasts and actual data. Users can prioritize specific statistics, and the platform maintains an archive of industry-relevant articles, including detailed summaries and notes.

How It Works:

Centralized News Feed: 

•   Users can scan articles from major financial publications (e.g., FT, Reuters, Bloomberg) in one place, eliminating the need to navigate multiple websites and ensuring that no important updates are missed.

Mark as Read/Interesting: 

• Articles can be marked as "read" to prevent re-reading previously viewed content.
• Articles flagged as "interesting" are saved for future reference and form the basis of daily market reports.

Peer Insights: 

• Researchers can see which articles their peers have marked as "interesting," providing an additional layer of insight and ensuring that no significant news is overlooked.

Economic Data Tracking 

• The platform aggregates critical economic data, offering a daily summary with a forward-looking 3-day view. 
• Users can flag key events such as Federal Reserve meetings or non-farm payrolls, ensuring that crucial data points are prioritized and easily tracked.

Industry Articles Database 

• Beyond general news, the platform scrapes websites for industry-specific content, especially for the Clearing and Prime sectors. Users can "favourite" articles, and summaries are stored in the platform’s database, with options to include them in email reports as needed.

Copyright Compliance 

• Our platform fully respects copyright regulations, only pulling accessible headlines from paywalled websites.
• For premium content (e.g., FT, The Economist, Risk), users can log in to access full articles. If no valid login is provided, only content available outside paywalls is displayed.

Summary 

• With our platform, researchers can accelerate news consumption, streamline their workflows, and stay up-to-date with critical economic data and industry developments—while minimizing the risk of missing key information.
