RESEARCH AND DATA

MOBILIST’s research looks to support the listing of pioneering products. We produce analysis on alternative structures and high-potential markets and identify solutions to the barriers that prevent products from listing on public markets today. We also generate learning and evidence on the wider market infrastructure, including data infrastructure, required to facilitate replication and scaling of MOBILIST-supported products over time.

MOBILIST’s first research reports will be published in the second quarter of 2022. Upcoming evidence products include a review of asset allocators’ emerging and frontier market strategies and sentiment and a deep-dive on the potential for investment trust structures to mobilise institutional capital for the Sustainable Development Goals. We look forward to publishing additional research on this page as products are finalised.
