The Z/Yen Group: we merge Zen and Yen -
“a philosophical desire to succeed” - in a ratio, recognising that all
decisions are trade-offs. Z/Yen helps organisations make better
choices through market intelligence, better systems and risk/reward
management. Our clients consider us a commercial think-tank that
spots, solves and acts.

"Towards better policies through shared
investment research" - the
London Accord is a unique collaboration among investment banks, research
houses, academics and NGOs.
The project’s sponsors, The City of London Corporation, the Z/Yen Group,
Forum for the Future and Gresham College, encourage investors and policy makers
to engage with each others' thinking about environmental, social and governance
(ESG) issues. The London Accord brings the innovation and rigour of
financial markets’ research to bear on the evaluation of investment
opportunities in potential solutions to the impact, and mitigation, of ESG
issues.

ExtZy - "Exchange Trading Z/Yen", The Market Of Markets - is the Z/Yen game that
turns the internet into a stock exchange. ExtZy is more than a game,
though - it's a powerful tool for market analysis. By combining a social network
with a trading engine, Z/Yen delivers a sophisticated prediction market.
ExtZy is an incipient trend detector for the community - much more knowledge can
be derived from information such as the price/earnings ratio than simple data
such as hit rates. Play for free prizes (see prize list), or 'list' your
own websites as shares for information.
Z/Yen supports
National Ethical Investment Week (NEIW), 17 to 23 May 2009. National
Ethical Investment Week (NEIW) is a cooperative campaign to increase the number
of consumers choosing a green and ethical investment. The campaign involves
financial advisers, NGOs, charities and faith groups in promoting investments
that can make a difference to society and the environment, as well as an
excellent financial return. NEIW provides an opportunity for concerned
organisations and individuals to hold events and activities during the same
week, and together have more impact than they would individually.
