A research report mixes things that were read, things that were concluded, things that could not be found and things you supplied. Without labels they look the same on the page and carry the same apparent weight. Every finding in a LATYNEX deliverable carries one of four labels. This page defines them and shows how to read a report with them in hand. No real findings appear here; the point is the reading rules.
A label does not rate the quality of the thing described. It says how the sentence came to be on the page. That makes it possible to disagree with a report intelligently: you can ask for a fact to be re-read at its source, challenge the reasoning behind an inference, or supply what was unavailable.
Each finding carries one of the four labels. A line that seems to carry none is worth asking about.
Read directly in a source named in the source log, and quoted or closely paraphrased. Use it as the ground the rest stands on, remembering it is only as current as the date beside the source.
Drawn by LATYNEX from verified facts and written with its basis. Use it as a working view, and look at what it rests on before leaning on it. It is not written in the voice of a fact.
Could not be established from the sources available for this question. It is a finding in itself: absence is recorded, not filled in. Use it to decide what to ask the counterparty or a local professional.
Supplied by you and not independently checked. It is carried into the report so the picture is whole, and it is marked so it is not mistaken for a checked finding.
A short order of reading that takes a few minutes and changes how the report is used.
The gaps tell you how much of the picture is missing. A page of unavailable lines is a different report from a page of facts, even when the conclusion reads the same.
An inference rests on facts. If one of those facts is wrong or dated, the inference moves with it.
They have not been checked. Where a record could support or contradict one, it remains a line to test rather than ground to stand on.
If yes, and it can be located again, it is a verified fact.
If yes and nothing independent supports it, it is client-provided.
Then it is an inference, written with its basis.
Then it is unavailable, and it is recorded as unavailable instead of being filled in.
Research reports what can be established from public and provided sources. It is not a guarantee about a counterparty's future conduct and not legal advice.
Yes. That is why it is labelled and why its basis is shown. It is a reasoned reading, not a record.
No. It describes how a statement in the report was sourced. It says nothing regarding the quality or future conduct of the company it concerns.
A score hides the reasoning. Four plain labels with their sources let you check the line yourself.
Tell us which line and why. A label follows from the source, so the useful question is which source supports a different class.
A company's own statement is reported as the company's own statement. Until an independent source confirms it, it is unavailable as a verified fact. It is never client-provided: that label is reserved for material you supply.
