Thomson Reuters Provides Investor Relations Professionals with Increased Market Transparency Through Agreement with Data Explorers

Benchmarking Data and Short Side Intelligence Now Available to IR Professionals

London - Thomson Reuters today announced the expansion of its offerings to investor relations professionals through a new agreement with Data Explorers, a global provider of short-side intelligence to financial communities. Through this agreement, investor relations professionals can now access this information, gaining increased clarity into market developments that impact their share price.
Specifically, investor relations officers partnering with Thomson Reuters can now receive e-mail alerts when the amount of their stock out on loan reaches a specific level defined by the client-company. The alerts are complemented by detailed reports and consultation providing additional stock lending data, including market level comparisons to demonstrate whether the stock is being lent out more or less than average, and other key comparative measures such as share price and volume.

“In this climate more than ever, investor relations professionals require reliable information to help align their company’s valuation with its true economic worth,” said William Haney, Managing Director, Corporate Services, EMEA and Asia, Thomson Reuters. “By working with Data Explorers, our clients will have access to additional value-added information not previously available to corporations, providing them with the increased market transparency they need to effectively manage their investors.”

“We are delighted to extend our offering to investor relations professionals through this agreement with Thomson Reuters,” said Donal Smith, CEO, Data Explorers. “The e-mail alerts, specially designed to service this market, provide corporations with the real-time intelligence they need to reach effective market decisions, especially given today’s volatile conditions.”
