Longview Economics is an independent research house based in London, providing three distinct yet interrelated groups of research products: i) Short & medium term market timing; ii) Long term global asset allocation advice; & iii) Global thematic, macro & commodities research.

The company was founded in 2003, by Chris Watling (CEO & Chief Market Strategist), and is the result of a deep and prolonged interest in markets and how they are affected by global economic events. Longview Economics has a large and diverse client base spread across the globe including the UK, US, Canada, Australia, continental Europe, Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan. Chris Watling & Harry Colvin regularly speak at conferences and travel extensively..

Our research products are the result of an honest approach to what is happening in markets and the factors affecting each event. We are not afraid to contradict the consensus view (and often do).

We have a good track record and are constantly striving to improve our understanding and awareness of economic influences. We hold regular dinners which often become heated debates and these enable both us and those attending to grapple with current issues and gain a deeper insight into their cause.

Longview economics takes a holistic and global view in its research which means we are well positioned to spot opportunities and anomalies in global markets.

Our client base comprises Institutions, Hedge funds, Brokers, Banks, IFA’s, Private wealth managers and Asset Managers. We are constantly evolving our product list to reflect their needs.
