01
Start from the primary source
Follow regulatory events from the issuing authority with publication date, legal status and a link to the original document, rather than a second-hand summary.
Regulatory risk for investors
See regulatory risk before it reaches the portfolio.
A consultation paper, a final rule or a supervisory statement can change the economics of a sector long before it shows up in earnings. Edict IQ helps investment teams follow the official source, assess which holdings and themes are exposed and record the view they took.

THE CHALLENGE
Regulation moves faster than the research note
Most investment teams hear about a rule through news flow, a broker note or a portfolio company. By then the source document has often been public for weeks. The harder question is not what was published, but which sectors, business models and positions it actually touches.
02
Translate rules into exposure
Assess a change by sector, business model, value chain and geography. Each exposure record keeps its assumptions visible so a colleague can challenge them.
03
Keep the investment view on record
Document what the team concluded, why, and when it should be reviewed again. The record stays linked to the source it was based on.
FROM SOURCE TO EXPOSURE
From a published rule to a documented exposure view
Edict IQ keeps three things apart that tend to blur in a hurry: what the authority published, what it may mean for a sector, and what your team decided to do about it.
- 01
Read the signal
Open the regulatory event, check the authority, jurisdiction, status and timeline, and read the original before forming a view.
- 02
Assess the exposure
Record which sectors, companies or themes on your watchlists are affected, in which direction, and which assumptions still need evidence.
- 03
Record the decision
Note whether the team monitors, reassesses a thesis or takes no action, with a rationale and a review date. Edict IQ does not suggest trades.
Read the original first. Assess exposure second. The investment judgement remains with people.

Built for teams that own the investment judgement
The same source base that compliance teams use is read here with a different question: who is exposed, and how much does it matter?
Check source coverageSector-focused boutique
A boutique holding European payment firms follows a proposed rule on fees from consultation to adoption and records how it affects each business model in the fund.
Multi-asset research desk
An analyst preparing an investment committee paper needs the source trail, the affected sectors and the open assumptions on one page rather than across five newsletters.
TRUST THROUGH EVIDENCE
Every material claim needs a source.
Edict IQ distinguishes official publications from interpretation and possible consequences. Source status, coverage limitations and unresolved questions belong in the review—not hidden in the fine print.
Edict IQ is a regulatory research workspace. It provides no investment advice, no buy or sell recommendations and no price forecasts, and it does not claim complete coverage of every authority worldwide.

Frequently asked questions
Short answers, without investment recommendations.
What is regulatory risk in investing?
It is the risk that a change in law, regulation or supervisory practice alters the costs, revenues or permitted activities of a company or sector. Edict IQ helps teams identify such changes at the source and document their own exposure assessment.
Does Edict IQ give investment recommendations?
No. It shows what an authority published, supports a structured exposure assessment and keeps your team's conclusion on record. The investment judgement and any decision remain with you.
How is this different from a news terminal?
A terminal reports that something happened. Edict IQ starts from the official document, separates the publication from its interpretation and links the resulting exposure view and decision back to that source.
