"EMWatch provides an invaluable service of timely news/policy updates. I’ve found these updates extremely useful for my monitoring of the Asian EMs. They are also quick to respond to any queries. Their press mood of the day is a very useful summary, that captures the essence of what’s being reported in local media (while saving a ton of time!)"

"EmergingMarketWatch is an indispensable tool for us in keeping track of macroeconomic developments across Africa. The reporting is timely and comprehensive, ensuring we stay informed of critical trends and market dynamics. One particularly noteworthy feature is the linking of tables and charts directly to their source data, which adds credibility and allows for further in-depth analysis. Additionally, the ability to ask questions on each story—and receive detailed, prompt responses—sets EmergingMarketWatch apart. It's also insightful to see what questions other users have asked. Beyond these features, the platform consistently provides insights that save time and enhance decision-making. All in all, it is a very valuable and cost-effective service, and it has become an integral part of our daily workflow."

"Likely as one of the platform’s longest clients (20+ years) my loyalty is a reflection of my highest regard for the service. It is simply the best in my area of expertise, Emerging Europe."

"One of the best resources when you need to find out the main news themes in a country in recent months – and if read every day probably keeps negative surprises to a minimum."

"EmergingMarketWatch has been an essential source for my work in covering numerous countries in emerging Europe. Their local network and knowledge is comprehensive, allowing their analysts to provide timely and high-quality reports/analyses on macro, politics, and any any topical issues/crises in their countries of coverage. I also appreciate their super responsive and proactive approach in their publication as well as answers to questions raised to them. Having been an extensive user of their services for over ten years, I cannot recommend highly enough EmergingMarketWatch."

"With budgets under constant review, we have cut most third party subscriptions…except Emergingmarketwatch, which I find indispensable and invaluable in my coverage of EMEA macroeconomics. Their analysts have deep familiarity with the local market and sources of information and are very resourceful and timely in answering my specific questions to them. Congratulations and keep it up!"

"The product is great, and the website is my first stop every morning. The team is very prolific, particularly with the less well-covered countries in the EMEA space. They catch a lot of news and developments I would have otherwise missed, and I often find myself going back to double check a lot of the local and external debt figures they report. They are very handy. I also like how easy it is to ask questions, and the team is always back with a good response within a few hours."

"I really enjoy using EmergingMarketWatch and one of the most important things for me is the ability to stay on top of developments across a number of countries at the same time. Being able to access key information in one place is very convenient. I find the format quite friendly and the content itself to be very useful. I also like looking at the “questions asked” section which of course provides the answers but also highlights mood/what’s on the mind among other economic agents."

"The EmergingMarketWatch service has become a key factor in my framework when researching EM countries. In particular, daily summaries of local news are always helpful."

"We have been using EmergingMarketWatch (previously CEEMarketWatch) for more than 15 years. This is a great research initiative covering all EMs in all time zones. EmergingMarketWatch helps us to be on top of all headlines (both political and economic) related to EMs, and also gives us a great local flavour as almost all editors are located in their coverage countries. Moreover, EmergingMarketWatch has an extensive database, which is great, especially when you need some specific data that is hard to find in mainstream data providers."
