McKinsey views research and knowledge management as critical enablers for our consultants to address our clients' most pressing issues in ways that ensure our work has sustainable impact. We commit extensive resources to the development and dissemination of knowledge related to our clients’ increasingly complex challenges and opportunities.
The McKinsey Knowledge Center is central to these efforts. In the spirit of our “One Firm” philosophy, we are seamlessly integrated with our global knowledge network, with knowledge professionals organized into industries and functions as well as several specialized capabilities such as Analytics and Centers of Competence.
The Analytics group helps client service teams solve complex and data-intensive business problems across industries.

Functional knowledge teams develop and deliver leading-edge research expertise across various business functions ranging from strategy to operations.
The Generalist Research group conducts high-quality research on business topics, such as macroeconomic indicators, financial performance, across industries and geographies.
Our industry-specific research groups span more than 15 industries.
