Founded in 2012, Umbrella Research LLC is an independent investment research firm located in New York City. The firm seeks to fill a growing information vacuum in the equity universe as diminishing investment banking prospects has resulted in the underinvestment of traditional sell side research support for small-cap and emerging growth companies. The result has been a growing universe of underfollowed or orphaned companies for which investor exposure and education is essentially non-existent. Umbrella Research & Advisory's efforts focus exclusively on lesser known companies where their research, whitepapers and investor outreach can create greater incremental value to both their subject companies and investors. While the universe of orphaned companies is large, the firm's resources remain focused on a limited number of companies to ensure quality and depth of coverage.
