The systematic and continuous production process of the Daily Brief is fundamental to the success of Oxford Analytica. It involves rigorous daily disciplines designed to ensure timely, reliable delivery of the finest quality analysis of geopolitical and macroeconomic events every business day of the year.
Editorial Conference: 7x24 hour news input is screened by our professional staff and discussed each weekday morning at the editorial conference chaired by the Editor of the Daily Brief and attended by Oxford Analytica Region Heads (mainly senior faculty members at Oxford University) and the full-time professional team of editor/analysts. The purpose of the conference is to:
Network Experts: Following this selection process, experts are commissioned from the global contributor network of over 1000 scholar experts to provide their analysis and judgement.
In-House Editing: The in-house team of editor/analysts, each of them regional specialists, undertakes a kind of real-time peer-review through critiques of the network contribution. This process culminates in the delivery of the Daily Brief. One of the team’s key roles is to edit the experts’ drafts to ensure coherenece - i.e. internal consistency as well as conformity with the underlying "rolling assumptions" and overall coverage in the Brief. They also provide the cross-referencing that facilitates access to the electronic archive of 20 years of global Daily Brief coverage.
Delivery: Clients can choose to receive the Daily Brief via one or more delivery methods.
Interactivity: The Further Questions button at the end of each Daily Brief article enables clients to interact with the professional staff and the network of scholar experts as appropriate.
