Selling publicly available SEC data consists as a challenge and an opportunity that exists in many public datasets today. Yup, get it free from the SEC, or buy it through Equilar. How does that work?
As data publishers well know, an approach like this usually doesn’t work, unless you find a way to add value. Equilar, a $20+ million data publisher managed to do this, in spades. Equilar deals in executive compensation benchmarking data, where making it comparable and getting the data right is the basis for an incredible business, and getting it wrong is the basis for going out of business.
