CEM Benchmarking is a data & insights firm that serves 150 of the world's top 300 pension plans. They have dramatically augmented their proprietary data sets with publicly available data through strategic implementation of Emerging Trajectories' AI platform. This partnership strengthens CEM's leadership in global pension benchmarking by efficiently allowing for public data in different geographies, languages and jurisdictions to be identified, sourced cleaned and amalgamated.

Key results include:

• 167% increase in data throughput, expanding research capacity to more data sets, formats, and sources.
• Systematic data structuring to compare and analyze data from across multiple languages and reporting formats including websites, PDF reports, and databases.
