EMIS UNIVERSITY FACT SHEET About EMIS

EMIS is the world’s premier Emerging Markets Information Service (formerly ISI Emerging Markets). It was founded in 1994 by Harvard Business School graduate Gary Mueller. Frustrated by the lack of information available while working as an academic researcher and as a KPMG analyst, Mueller started the company with the purpose of providing easy access to critical business information and research on the world’s emerging markets.
