Stifel Award-Winning Research

Award-Winning Research

Stifel research focuses on all market caps, but is a leader in small and mid cap research. The department is staffed predominately with industry professionals from outside Wall Street. In fact, many of its analysts have hands-on work experience in the industry that they research. Stifel believes industry experience, its opportunistic approach, and broad market cap coverage drive excess returns and its award-winning franchise.

Stifel Equity Research Teams ranked No. 5 among 156 qualifying firms and earned a total of 15 awards in the 2020 Refinitiv StarMine Analyst Awards. Stifel earned five #1 rankings and has had 14 consecutive top ten finishes.
