Computer-based systems and methods for computing market-adjusted elasticities for accounts

A computer-implemented system for relating resources expended by a securities research entity to revenue received by a financial services firm including the securities research entity, the system comprising:

• a computer-based data storage system, the data storage system comprising:
• a revenue and expenses data store comprising data describing revenue generated by the securities research entity and expenses incurred by the securities research entity;
• and
• a fund account data store comprising data describing securities transactions associated with the securities research entity;
• a computer device comprising a processor circuit and a memory circuit, wherein the processor circuit is programmed to:
• receive, from the fund account data store, revenue data indicating revenue received by the financial services firm for a first customer investment account from securities trade execution by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account;
• receive, from the revenue and expense data store, expense data indicating expenses incurred by the securities research entity on behalf of the first customer investment account;
• determine a market condition-adjusted elasticity for the first customer investment account, wherein the market condition-adjusted elasticity indicates a relationship between the expenses incurred by the securities research entity on behalf of the first customer investment account and the revenue received by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account from securities trade execution by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account, wherein the market condition-adjusted elasticity is determined based on at least one market condition for securities, and wherein determining the market condition-adjusted elasticity comprises determining a lag between changes in the expenses incurred by the securities on behalf of the first customer investment account and corresponding changes in the revenue received by the financial services firm from the first customer investment account for securities trade execution by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account.

• a computer device comprising a processor circuit and a memory circuit, wherein the processor circuit is programmed to:
• receive, from the data storage system, revenue data indicating revenue received by the financial services firm for a plurality of customer investment accounts from securities trade execution by the financial services firm;
• receive, from the data storage system, expense data indicating expenses incurred by the securities research entity on behalf of the plurality of customer investment accounts;
• receive, from the data storage system, at least one market condition for securities;
• determine a market condition-adjusted elasticity for each of the plurality of customer investment accounts, wherein determining the market condition-adjusted elasticity for a first customer investment account selected from the plurality of customer investment accounts comprises:
• determining a relationship between expenses incurred by the securities research entity on behalf of the first customer investment account and revenue received by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account from securities trade execution by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account;
• adjusting the relationship based on the at least one market condition for securities;
• and
• determining a lag between changes in the expenses incurred by the securities research entity on behalf of the first customer investment account and corresponding changes in the revenue received by the financial services firm from the first customer investment account for securities trade execution by the financial services firm for the first customer investment account;
• and
• display a graphical user interface, wherein the graphical user interface displays the market-condition adjusted elasticity for at least one of the plurality of customer investment accounts, wherein the graphical user interface comprises:
• a summary field showing a graphical representation of modeled market-condition adjusted elasticity for each of the plurality of customer investment accounts;
• and
• at least one field showing customer investment account-specific information describing an elasticity of one of the plurality of customer investment accounts.
