Aoris Investment Management stated the following regarding RELX PLC (NYSE:RELX) in its fourth quarter 2025 investor letter:
“The major detractors from returns in the quarter were RELX PLC (NYSE:RELX), Experian and Microsoft. RELX declined by 16%, reducing performance by 1.2%. Microsoft fell by 8.6%, while Experian was down 8%, reducing the portfolio return by 0.7% and 0.8% respectively.
RELX and Experian are both providers of data, software and analytics to professional users. In the case of RELX these customers include lawyers, academics and insurance underwriters, while Experian serves banks and other providers of credit. Some investors have been concerned that AI tools will be able to extract data from the internet, displacing the services provided by RELX and Experian.
We believe these concerns are misplaced. The data at the core of both RELX and Experian is proprietary and not available to AI models. Rather than eroding the value of what RELX and Experian provide, AI is in fact enhancing it. We’ve seen this particularly in the case of RELX, where premium AI tools have driven a notable acceleration in its business serving legal practitioners. Both companies reported strong earnings growth last year and we are confident about their prospects for the coming years.”
