Investment managers and data scientists are increasingly applying patent data to conduct better informed investment decisions

Investors' interest in alternative data has exploded over the past few years as firms have been actively seeking a sustainable edge to add to their investment process. Patents are future-oriented and possess high predictive power, thus being frequently used to identify technology trends and disruptive innovations early on. Patent data can also be applied to identify potentially impactful start-ups or to assess the risks and opportunities that technology-driven companies are likely to face. ESG focused investors use patent data to identify companies investing in technologies against the mitigation of climate change.

PatentSight provides strategic insights based on worldwide patent data

PatentSight compiles bibliographic patent data from worldwide patent offices and has the most comprehensive full-text patent data with over 100 million patent documents in English. An international expert team ensures up-to-date and accurate patent ownership based on corporate structure, M&A, spin-offs, company name changes, patent transactions, and other extensive primary researches. Based on this enriched and cleaned data, PatentSight evaluates patents using a scientifically-developed and proprietary methodology, the Patent Asset Index™. This method distinguishes high-value patents from less important ones, enabling better-informed business decisions.

PatentSight® data is now easily accessible for investors via BLOOMBERG Enterprise Access Point

The addition of PatentSight data to BLOOMBERG Enterprise Access Point makes it considerably easier for asset managers looking to add these nontraditional datasets to their investment process.
