Evercore ISI Ranked No. 1 in Extel All-America Research Survey for 4th Straight Year
NEW YORK--( BUSINESS WIRE)--Evercore ISI has been ranked No. 1 among all firms for top-ranked analysts on a weighted basis in the 2025 Extel (previously Institutional Investor) All-America Equity Research survey, marking its fourth consecutive year at the top. This overall firm ranking reflects the highest weighted score, emphasizing analysts’ top scores within each category.
A total of 44 Evercore ISI analysts were recognized as Top 3 or Runner-Up in their respective sectors, including 14 analysts that earned the No. 1 position – the most of any firm. Stephen Kim was inducted into the Extel Hall of Fame, which recognizes analysts who have achieved a No. 1 ranking for at least 10 years, a distinguished milestone. According to Extel, the 2025 All-America Research Team results reflect the feedback of over 4,400 investment professionals from more than 1,700 asset management firms and institutions.
In addition to individual analyst recognition, Evercore ISI saw significant improvements across its team rankings. Eleven teams improved their positions year over year, contributing to Evercore ISI achieving the No. 2 firm overall ranking by team – also weighted by the highest ranks within each category. The firm’s macro teams once again demonstrated exceptional performance – Economics and Technical Analysis maintained their No. 1 positions, while Washington Research advanced to No. 1 and Portfolio Strategy moved from unranked to Runner-Up.
“This recognition reflects the dedication and excellence of every member of our team,” said Ed Hyman, chairman of Evercore ISI. “We remain committed to delivering research perspective and alpha generating insights to our clients and are deeply grateful for their partnership and support.”
“Evercore’s sustained success is driven by our focus on quality, collaboration and trust,” said Mike Paliotta, CEO of Evercore ISI. “Being recognized again as a leader in research underscores the strength of our brand and the synergy across our research, sales, and trading teams. I am proud of our team and the differentiated value we deliver to our clients every day.”
