Secondary listings allow entire companies to trade on multiple exchanges (not just corresponding subsidiaries)

So I agree that it was likely just a mistake to list multiple listings of the same companies, but the fact that they usually receive different scores proves their process isn't diligent:

I think there's 2 sides of the company:

- (1) Insight scores

- (2) ETF management

I think the pipeline between (1) and (2) is probably tight within the company (probably a few big Excel spreadsheets) and the (2) side has a lot of brains.

But the (1) side needs to do more work on the pipeline between those spreadsheets and the Web, and maybe hire more/better software dev help for that. They'd do better to use Postgres as their source of truth.
