From pioneer to best-practice in consensus management

OUR STORY

Our Managing Director, Michael Vara, started his career as an analyst. Frustrated by the lack of clarity in market expectations, he envisioned a solution that would provide unbiased estimates to the financial community. This vision led to the creation of VARA.

With over 20 years of experience, VARA delivers high-quality consensus forecasts for listed companies around the globe. Today, we proudly serve more than 100 blue-chip companies.

Our services encompass a wide range of products designed to enhance capital market communication and reduce the costs associated with consensus management.
