Changes to FitchConnect…
14/05/2024

Those of you who have been using FitchConnect may have noticed that things are changing. The BMI content we subscribe to being migrated to its own platform. In the meantime, when you login to Fitch, you will first arrive at the screen below, where Cranfield users need to select BMI.

Once you arrive at the BMI page, to access the country or industry reports, simply use the handy dropdown menu to select your Geography and Service/Industry.

After you make your selections for country and area of interest, you will be taken to the appropriate landing page where you can access reports and pre-packaged data for your chosen sector.

If you are interested in an industry at a global level, simply select the industry from the left-hand menu. Just hover over the menu to view options.
If you’re looking to download from specific datasets, the Bulk Data Download option is available via the left-hand menu. Step-by-step instructions on this are available in our post here. Although things look a little different in the new interface, the steps remain the same.
Hopefully this will get you all started. As the interface changes and things settle down, we will update more of our individual BMI/Fitch posts. In the meantime, if you have any questions at all, please do get in touch.
