Cutting Edge Information (CEI) is a market research company that specializes in collecting and analyzing global FMV data. To CEI, delivering FMV data is not an ancillary function, but our primary focus.


Our in-house team of statisticians and research analysts worked with life science industry experts to develop our advanced methodology. This market-based FMV approach includes a rigorous annual collection of FMV data and a proprietary statistical process (including blending with salary data, where available) resulting in the most accurate FMV rates on the market.


The 2025 FMV database is based on more than 230,000 individual data observations from around the world — allowing us to provide data in more countries and on more HCPs than anyone else.
