• Substantive Research's previous study found that some consumers of index data were being charged more than 26 times more than others, by the same providers, for similar use cases. Today’s study shows that these aggressive percentage price increases are applied even to those paying much higher multiples, meaning their price inflation carries a much higher cost.
