The company has published reports on both the international industry and detailed individual regional studies. Each report provides the detailed statistical background (by country and by company) and an in-depth analysis of industry trends and company strategies and development plans. The reports provide the hotel sector itself as well as analysts, financial institutions, consultants and travel trade professionals with the business intelligence and objective information they need for their strategic planning and marketing.
