Morningstar released key updates for alternative asset investors, including a new hedge funds dataset that provides a broader view into alternative fund assets. It also added patent data and analytics and Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) filings data to company profiles, and increased the timeliness of its private financials coverage throughout Europe. Morningstar continued to expand its core datasets in venture capital, private equity, M&A, and debt. The company sharpened its geographic focus on Europe, Asia Pacific and Greater China, increasing the number of companies and funds under coverage in these areas. In Greater China, Morningstar now covers the entire flow of capital from LPs to GPs to companies. Morningstar further bolstered its public company data capabilities by introducing new datasets, such as enhanced capital structure data, that give clients the depth of data needed to better determine cost of capital. It also added executive compensation data and earnings calls transcripts to help investors better track management team performance. Additionally, the company extended its modelling and pitch deck creation capabilities with the launch of its MAC/Online Excel Plugin and the release of its PowerPoint plugin.
