NEW YORK, Jan. 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Strategas Research Partners, LLC today announced the acquisition of Encima Global, a New York macroeconomic research provider run by former Bear Stearns Chief Economist and appointee to the Reagan and Bush Administrations David Malpass. Encima brings Strategas Research new econometric models and new corporate and institutional investment relationships. At the same time, Encima’s clients will gain access to Strategas’ unbiased global macroeconomic research in seven research verticals – investment strategy, economics, policy research, technical analysis, fixed income strategy, industry surveys, and international economics. With this acquisition, Strategas continues to expand its services and to build its value proposition.

Jason Trennert, Strategas Managing Partner and Chairman, said, “It is a great honor to be able to provide Encima’s clients with the same level of analysis and service they been accustomed to getting from David since 2008.” He added, “Our relationships and offerings are complementary and give clients new options in research and network building.”

Mr. Malpass stated, “The exceptional Strategas reputation for quality and service is one of the compelling factors in this transaction.” He noted, “Jason’s a long-time friend, and he and his colleagues have built a great business.”

Encima colleagues Wing Chow and Adrienne Hepworth will serve as consultants during the transition.

Today’s deal represents for Strategas Research Partners a new chapter in the firm’s growth since it was founded more than 10 years ago by Jason DeSena Trennert, Nicholas Bohnsack, its COO, and Donald Rissmiller, its Chief Economist and Director of Research.

Partner and Head of Strategas’ Washington office and policy work, Dan Clifton is also excited about the acquisition: “David has provided a unique expertise for his clients that combines his extensive economic, financial, political, and foreign policy knowledge. Strategas looks forward to using Encima’s insightful analysis and econometric approaches in our diverse research verticals.”
