MFI Research Scope

Research workflows designed to connect evidence instead of producing isolated answers.

The MFI roadmap spans foundational data contracts through integrated investment research. Each area is intended to preserve source context, assumptions, and risk so the analysis remains reviewable.

Markets

Market & security intelligence

Canonical security identity, quotes, OHLCV history, market status, corporate actions, market structure, liquidity, volatility, and related context.

Regulatory

Filings & issuer evidence

Provider-neutral regulatory data boundaries for annual, quarterly, current, ownership, proxy, and registration documents.

Companies

Fundamentals & earnings

Income statement, balance sheet, cash flow, margins, growth, leverage, free cash flow, capital efficiency, earnings comparisons, and guidance inputs.

Valuation

Valuation & scenario analysis

Research frameworks that keep key assumptions visible and make scenario differences easier to inspect and compare.

Portfolio

Portfolio analysis

Positions, concentration, exposures, benchmark relationships, attribution, comparative research, and risk-aware interpretation.

Macro

Economic & policy context

Rates, inflation, policy, economic series, and macro conditions that can affect companies, securities, sectors, and portfolios.

Funds

Funds & ETFs

Holdings, benchmarks, fees, exposures, comparative research, and fund-level context within governed research workflows.

Credit

Fixed income & credit

Rates, spreads, credit quality, default risk, and fixed-income context for broader financial research.

Options

Options intelligence

Options-ready data, pricing assumptions, Greeks, implied volatility, strategy analysis, scenario risk, and integrated research synthesis.

Research object model

Evidence should remain attached to the reasoning.

MFI is being developed around provider-neutral contracts, source identifiers, as-of timestamps, retrieval timestamps, freshness classifications, lineage metadata, and source-authority rules. The goal is to make important numerical and narrative evidence easier to trace.
