English to Polish Bus/Financial Journalism publikacje prasowe

"(...)chief economist for X expressed the most optimistic version of this in a 'research note' published in the NY Times on 01 December 2000: '[cytat]'."

Cytowane jest tylko jedno zdanie, ale ponieważ rzecz jest o finansach, przypuszczam że wyrażenie odnosi się do poniższego znaczenia:

"Research notes are often short in length (only a few paragraphs is common) and may make reference to an existing and more thorough investment call to buy or sell a security; research notes are also often used to advise clients to change their tactics and take a different course of action, along with the firm's reasons for this advice.
Depending on the issuing firm, research notes may only be released to existing or prospective clients, and not to the general public. Many of them make their way into the public domain quickly, even later in the same trading day."

"Nota badawcza" to raczej obszerna publikacja naukowa - raczej odpada. Wyrażenie jest w cudzysłowie, więc to chyba przenośnia, ale wciąż nie wiem co z tym zrobić. Czy ktoś zna polską nazwę na tego typu tekst?
