Today, MFIA provides independent information, analysis and advice to mutual fund investors through both Fidelity Insight and FundsNet Insight, an additional monthly report covering the funds available through the fund networks of Charles Schwab, E*TRADE, Fidelity and TD Waterhouse, that Eric began in 1994.

In 1987 he established a private money management service, Kobren Insight Management (KIM), where he serves as President and Chief Investment Officer. KIM also serves as the investment advisor to the Kobren Insight Mutual Funds that Eric launched in December of 1996. In 2001, Eric launched Alumni Partners, a hedge fund of hedge funds that focuses exclusively on hedge funds run by former analysts or fund managers from Fidelity Investments.

"Recognizing that Fidelity customers were starved for information, Mr. Kobren started Fidelity Insight, a monthly newsletter that broke news on new mutual funds, advised readers how to avoid fees and transformed the brash Brooklyn native into the high priest of Fidelity watchers. His fly-on-the-wall dispatches outraged Fidelity executives in the process."
