What is Red Pulse

China’s economy is already the 2nd largest in the world in terms of nominal GDP, and 1st in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP). However, as a market for investment and industry participation, it remains incredibly difficult to understand. This disconnect presents a huge opportunity to platforms and services that can bridge this informational gap.

The problem is made all the more challenging to solve by several critical circumstances.

1. Research Content Ecosystem is Broken

2. Information Accuracy and Transparency

3. Information Overload

Solution:

Red Pulse solves these issues by creating a groundbreaking research content platform that simplifies incentives and directly compensates research producers for their valuable insights, while ensuring research consumers can access the research that is most relevant to them. Independent analysts and market commentators can now contribute their ideas and insights on an ad-hoc basis, and be compensated accordingly. RPX is the underlying mechanism used to facilitate this ecosystem, and provides RPX holders with direct participation in the rise of China’s economy.

The Red Pulse platform currently covers market events spanning several key sectors, including banking, brokerages, insurance, asset management, real estate, internet, telecom, semiconductors, consumer goods, travel & hospitality, food & beverage, aerospace & aviation, and energy.Subscribers can access our research through our client web portal, iOS mobile app for iPhone and iPad, or daily summary email newsletter.
