Edward Blad, CEO and Founder of IRF, is joined by Jules Hull of StockViews. StockViews is a fundamental research firm providing clients with indepth reports on Long and Short ideas sourced from European markets.

Recently StockViews has developed a ground-breaking piece of software called Dragonfly, which systematically highlights potential risks in three major areas: Accounting, Earnings Quality and Governance.

As Annual Report season rolls in Jules explains how Dragonfly works and why its focus on details from the notes to the accounts can provide investors with an edge in spotting risks instantaneously. Dragonfly produces automated reports on over 1300 companies in Europe using over 800 raw data points from the financial statements and governance disclosures.

Dragonfly will soon incorporate a unique remuneration framework based on the metrics companies use for long and short term incentivisation.
