Acquisitions synergy SMRA recently joined Oxford Economics, creating a combined US macroeconomic offering. Opportunities exist to cross-sell broader global forecasting, access to macro research, and integrated fixed income insights to clients seeking comprehensive economic analytics.

Fixed income focus Target institutions in fixed income, trading desks, portfolio management, and risk teams that rely on independent economic research. Promote SMRA’s long-standing validation in forecasts, market events timing, and integration with macro themes to enhance investment decision processes.

Small firm agility With a lean team and revenue in the lower mid-range, SMRA can scale selectively through partnerships, white-label research, or subscription enhancements. Propose affordable, tiered offerings or co-branded solutions to expand client reach without large overhead.

Content value proposition Highlight proprietary tools such as the weekly fixed income Portfolio Manager Survey and historical duration/credit allocation insights. Offer data-driven insights, dashboards, and event calendars that reduce research time and support client risk/ops workflows.

Growth opportunities Leverage high-value clients spanning central banks to hedge funds and banks. Explore add-on services like scenario analysis, US macro forecasts, Fed policy implications, and Treasury financing commentary to deepen client engagement and increase wallet share.
