Citi is expanding its research to include private companies.

Citi aims to identify how different profit pools will be disrupted and which companies —private or public— may emerge as winners or losers.

Citi has hired Health Terry as head of technology and communications research to lead coverage of the AI sector and guide private firm research across industries, according to a press statement from the bank.

The bank will concentrate on roughly 100 large and influential private firms, primarily in the tech sector. They will publish research when these firms undertake actions relevant to broader markets, it said.

It will cover product launches, customer acquisitions, and new product lines, similar to the coverage of public companies
