How does quantitative analysis differ from qualitative analysis?
Both quantitative and qualitative company analysis use current information to evaluate a company's performance and future prospects. However, they take different approaches.
When performing quantitative analysis, you focus solely on financial indicators and market data, trying to identify trends and patterns that indicate the company's likely future development. In contrast, qualitative analysis uses a more comprehensive approach and examines all circumstances surrounding the company. You might assess the general state of the following:
- Economic environment and market conditions
- Industry trends and competitive position
- Management quality and corporate culture
- Innovation capacity and future viability of the business model
- Sustainability practices and social responsibility
This could also include an assessment of all possible factors, from market position and competitive advantage to cash flow and operational efficiency of a company. Qualitative analysis is often considered more comprehensive and in-depth than purely quantitative analysis, as all aspects affecting a company's value and future viability are examined and taken into account, not just financial indicators and market data.
Our premium analysis service combines both approaches to offer you a complete and nuanced picture of the evaluated companies.
