Thomson Reuters Pushes Further into Real Time

September 20, 2010

Well, it was only last year that Thomson Reuters revamped their website to provide content that is more intelligent to business professionals. It has since then had a series of launches of Elecktron – “a high-speed data distribution network, and interactive on-demand video platform Insider,” that forms part of the company’s financial markets data subscription business.

The NewMediaAge article, “Thomson Reuters Adds to Market Information Service,” informs about the third component of its revamped market information service – Eikon. The article reports that, “Eikon combines market information, news, analytics, and trading tools into a desktop facility, with social and mobile access.” Describing further it states that Eikon, “links with foreign exchanges, equities, fixed income and trading venues, with easy-click trade capabilities so that traders can act in real-time.”

We wonder if these specialized, real-time high-end services can help the company climb back on the growth roller coaster. Only time will tell.
