About LB Research
Independent research for
complex markets.
LB Research is an independent research house specialising in systemic risk, market structure, and cross-asset fragility.
Institutional purpose
Why LB Research exists
The work focuses on the signals that sit beneath price, volatility, and liquidity, early structural shifts that rarely appear in headline narratives but often shape market behaviour.
The emphasis is on transparency, clarity, and signal, rather than after-the-fact commentary.
How we work
Research Principles
Structure before narrative
The work begins with the forces beneath price: liquidity, correlation, dispersion, and the way risk travels across markets.
Evidence before conviction
Signals are tested across assets and regimes before they are framed as a useful research view.
Clarity without simplification
The aim is to make complex conditions legible while preserving uncertainty, context, and the limits of the evidence.
Founder and research lead
Laura Brennan
Founder, LB Research
LB Research was built to provide the kind of structural clarity often missing in modern markets: calm, sharp, and grounded in signal rather than narrative.
Laura Brennan founded LB Research and leads its research into systemic risk, market structure, and cross-asset fragility.
Working together
Research Partnerships
LB Research may undertake a limited number of commissioned research partnerships where the question fits its structural and cross-asset remit. Each engagement is shaped around a focused research question rather than a general consulting package.
