Our Philosophy

We are committed to providing innovative, wealth-building investment solutions through original thought, proprietary data and access to company managements, industry leaders and our analysts.

Janney’s enduring commitment to primary research coincides with an investment acumen that recognizes our core responsibility – to make money for our clients. Our analysts strive to identify the emerging and sometimes hidden themes that can provide investors a superior return over time.

Our Universe

The talent and experience of our Janney Equity Research team generates the remarkable industry expertise and stock selection skill that Janney has provided clients since 1832. By focusing on a carefully chosen universe of industries, we are able to bring valuable insight to the individual companies and securities we cover and offer a refreshing perspective into the historical background of the overall industry and its place in today’s complex competitive operating environment.

Our Research team provides research on approximately 130 companies in five primary Verticals: Basic Industry, Consumer, Financial Institutions, Healthcare, and Technology. We can make recommendations that not only offer superior long-term return characteristics for investors, but that also meet each investor’s unique financial needs. Our focus on long-term superior returns does not obscure our view of short-term trading opportunities.

Our Integrity

Our Research team is committed to a thorough and objective selection process of investment ideas. With rising concerns over regulation and corporate governance, Janney has devoted substantial internal and external resources to ensure our compliance with increasingly complex regulations, so that we may ensure the highest level of integrity for both our employees and clients.

Our Analysts

Our 13 talented Senior Analysts, supported by a solid core of Research Associates, closely follow nearly 130 stocks – ranging from emerging growth companies leading today’s most exciting technologies (companies that are solidly based in the increasingly attractive service and support industries in the U.S.), to offerings with steady growth prospects and attractive dividends. All of our efforts are focused on these specific sectors so that we may provide the broadest value-added research to recommend securities with superior appreciation prospects, along with the essential perspective that allows our investors, Institutional sales team and over 900 Financial Consultants, to fully comprehend the increasingly intricate and intertwined U.S. business environment.
