JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – A new research-sharing agreement will see Nedbank Capital’s clients gain access to global research on the North American, Australasian and African mining sectors.

The agreement with the wholesale banking arm of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), World Markets, will also enable access to the analysis of more than 100 international metals and mining stocks globally.

“The agreement combines CIBC’s expansive research and analysis with the insights provided by Nedbank Capital’s global markets equity division, effectively giving its clients economic and market intelligence and in-depth sector research backed by detailed fundamental, quantitative and technical analysis,” said Nedbank Capital group managing executive Brian Kennedy in a statement.

The agreement “significantly” strengthened Nedbank’s research offering and complemented its mining advisory services, which would enable its clients to identify important trends, developments and opportunities at macro, sector, company and asset-class levels to increase their global business and investment opportunities.
