NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Analyst Hub, an independent research infrastructure platform company that provides talented sell-side analysts a path to owning their own enterprise, today announced that Frank Mitsch – 2017 Institutional Investor Ranked in the chemicals space – has partnered with the firm.

“We are very proud to announce that Frank has partnered with Analyst Hub to launch his own business,” said Mike Kronenberg, CEO of Analyst Hub. “He recognizes that commercial sell-side research appears to be moving toward a more cost efficient, free agent model and away from the big bank trading format.”

“Analyst Hub offers a terrific platform for senior analysts like me to build a subscription research business," said Mitsch. "This new model frees up capital by leveraging the compliance, technology tools and distribution of research in a much more efficient way than bigger institutions ever could.”

Analyst Hub offers outsourced infrastructure and organizational support to facilitate the publishing and distribution of sell-side research. Additionally, it handles all of the middle and back office, provides experienced institutional sales and corporate access support to both originate and execute on non-deal road shows, small conferences and other high value corporate marketing.

“Our solution couldn’t be more timely since MiFID has changed the buyers’ mindset to monitor what research resources they consume and to put a price on each of them,” said Kronenberg. “What we offer analysts is a true ‘infrastructure as a service’ platform and we look forward to continuing to scale with high quality content and to focus on building proprietary technology so we can offer more modern distribution options for our affiliated analyst teams.”

Before launching his own business on Analyst Hub, Mitsch was a managing director and senior analyst with Wells Fargo covering the commodity, specialty and agricultural chemicals sectors. Previous to that, he was with BB&T Capital Markets and has covered the chemicals space for more than 22 years. Mitsch began his career with international management consulting firm Kline & Company where he was a chemicals consultant, working in both the U.S. and Europe.
