Larger enterprises generally compete through their different divisions at the same time in several industries. This creates the need for individual business units to benchmark against smaller firms of their particular industry; especially when there is little publicly available information about competitors or before buy-out initiatives.

With our FINTEL Industry Metrics reports (FIM) or our interactive FINTEL Business Analyzer tool, managers of large corporations will be able to achieve their goals.

• Compare individual business units to privately held companies of over 2,500 industry groups using reliable benchmarks that are not available anywhere else and that will demonstrate the current performance of a business unit
• Analyze major differences in financial structure and performance of privately held companies vs. your own business units
• Establish targets for business units by presenting them with performance benchmarks from their particular industry that are difficult to dispute
• Convince analysts and private equity firms with arguments using a language that they can understand – numbers
• Propose recommendations based on the analytical expertise derived from years of experience and proven successful in many similar cases

FINTEL's products are ideal for evaluating the financial performance of a business and recommending options for improvement.
