Marc Harris, Evercore ISI Director of Research, added, “Each year, the market for research services becomes more competitive and this year was no exception. The need for research in a volatile and fast-paced environment is more important than ever, and our analysts were able to provide valuable insights to our institutional clients. Our team is steadfast in delivering the very highest quality independent thinking that aligns with our clients’ needs.”
CEO of Evercore ISI, Mike Paliotta, said, “I have consistently witnessed our team’s commitment to independent thinking and excellence.

We appreciate this client recognition and remain committed to making selective, strategic investments to continue our tradition of delivering the differentiated products and services that our clients expect of us.”
“In a year marked by a global pandemic and an economic downturn, we are seeing increased demand for both our macro and fundamental research by not only our institutional investor clients, but also our corporate clients,” said John Weinberg, Evercore’s Co-Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer. “We thank our clients for this tremendous recognition and partnership.”
Ralph Schlosstein, Evercore’s Co-Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, added, “Our independent, world class research capabilities add to our ability to best serve our corporate, institutional investor and high net worth clients in all market environments.
