TheMarkets.com, a leading provider of research, estimates and workflow
solutions to the buy-side, today announced that over 550 brokers have agreed
to deliver their content to the Company's global network of research and
estimates clients. TheMarkets.com is used by over 2400 investment management
firms in 51 countries worldwide.
Over the last six months, TheMarkets.com added 350 brokers to its already
vast contributor offering, and now distributes research from brokers in 56
countries across the globe. Contributing brokers have access to a buy-side
audience that includes 21 of the 25 largest U.S. asset managers, 39 of the
top 50 European asset managers, and 73 of the world's largest 100 hedge
funds.
"We have focused our efforts on the sell-side research providers our
clients most value and demand," said Amy Kadomatsu, Chief Product Officer of
TheMarkets.com. "And, those brokers have seen significant value in
distributing their content to our customers on our award-winning research
product. We are at least twelve months ahead of where we anticipated we'd be
with brokers, which is a testament to the quality of our platform for
research distribution."
TheMarkets.com now plans to augment its broker content by adding
independent research providers to its platform. "Based on client requests and
contributor interest, we plan to begin to add a select offering of
high-quality independent research to our platform over the coming months,
enabling independent research providers to reach a leading distribution
network of top-tier buy-side readers," said Kadomatsu.
