Feature Overview – Open Entitlements System

Our new Open Entitlements structure

Developed specifically for Target Price & Ratings – provides meaningful and accessible values for target prices and ratings and allows all users to view every target price and rating provided on the Target Price & Ratings page.

Sell-Side Visibility Setting: The sell-side visibility setting enables you to exchange the following levels of access to your content with other sell-side contributors on a give-to-get basis, meaning the lowest common access level between two sell-side contributors will be made available:

Full: External sell-side users can see all of your Target Price & Ratings content, and your content is attributed to you.
Partial: External sell-side users can see your Target Price & Ratings data, but only on an anonymized basis.
Hidden: Your Target Price & Ratings data set is completely hidden from view. External sell-side users are notified that an additional contributor participates in consensus, but they do not have access to that contributor’s data.

We also offer our pre-existing entitlements-based structure for Target Price & Ratings should this be required – however sell-side visibility will then be unavailable, meaning you will be restricted from seeing other sell-side Target Price & Ratings data. A request must be made to your Visible Alpha representative should you wish to move to entitlement-based access.
