Castine Conversations
We come across hundreds of interesting people and firms in the different projects that we undertake in the commission management and research management space. We thought others would be as fascinated as we are with them.
This podcast introduces us to business leaders, entrepreneurs, and businesses around the globe who have special interest in commission management (aka CSAs and soft dollars), broker/producer compensation, research services (including full RMS, research discovery, compliance, budgeting, and payments thereof). Each person is unique in their background and offers their advice on getting started and how their business operates and grows. We hope you enjoy it!
Castine works with over 50 brokers, 500+ asset managers, and 2000+ research providers with its solution suites. We have clients globally and support them with teams in London, Lisbon, Paris, New Jersey (USA), and Buenos Aires. Our solutions are cloud-based and are used by institutional and retail brokers, investment managers, research providers, and hedge funds worldwide.

Mike Carrodus - Founder of Substantive Research
In this podcast we meet Mike Carrodus, who is the founder and CEO of UK-based Substantive Research. We cover Mike's background in this episode and will meet up again in a future episode to discuss more about the creation of Substantive Research. Substantive was formed in 2015 and provides research discovery and research spend analytics, both of which provide immense value-add to any manager. The firm also runs what is considered to be the "go to" conference for information about commission management, which is held twice a year in London and in New York.
Mike's travels from publishing to research to running one of the leading research providers in the institutional investment space is fascinating. We hope you enjoy meeting Mike.
