RGE Monitor, as the company was known then, was co-founded in 2004 by Nouriel Roubini, former senior advisor to the U.S. Treasury and the International Monetary Fund, and a professor at New York University's Stern School of Business. The company rebranded itself as RGE and has offices in New York, London and Hong Kong and includes a staff of several dozen in-house economists and analysts. Roubini serves as Chairman for the company, provides direction to the analytical team, and regularly publishes his own writings to the site through his "EconoMonitor", one of nine economic blogs housed on the site.
RGE's online product is focused on macroeconomic, financial, geo-strategic, and geo-political topics and includes original analysis of the world's most important economies and asset classes. In addition, RGE's analysts consult with clients directly, and on a daily basis compile region- and topic-specific summaries and collections of references to external content judged relevant to its clients. Limited access to the site is available for free. Paid/Premium subscriptions allow for full access and are targeted at asset managers, hedge funds, commercial banks, investment banks, central banks and other policy organizations, and universities. Free trials to the premium product can be requested through the site.
