Equity Research Analyst

About the Role 

The analyst will become part of CFRA’s growing global fundamental equity research team, which produces independent equity research analysis on companies and industries.  

The CFRA fundamental research team is structured by sector. The fundamental sector teams meet regularly with their CFRA counterparts on the forensic accounting, policy/legal, and technical research teams to collaborate on research and share insights.  

The CFRA fundamental research team also has access to several internal and proprietary analytical tools, including fundamental dashboards with all key fundamental metrics, standardized DCF models, forensic accounting diagnostic reports, and technical signals, for example.   

CFRA research analysts conduct and publish fundamental equity research on publicly traded companies for our global client base, including institutional investors, wealth advisors, insurance companies, regulators, and professional service firms.  

The analyst will conduct qualitative and quantitative research on valuation, financial performance, competitive industry positioning, quality of earnings, free cash flow expectations, and more. As such, the analyst will work closely with their sector team to produce equity research reports, stock rating recommendations, sector and industry outlooks, and in-depth thematic equity research, while building and maintaining valuation models (DCF).
