Providing access to such vital information in real-time will enable Thomson Reuters financial professionals to take advantage of more opportunities for customers, by ensuring they are kept immediately up to date with market news and movements.
The extension of the service to Windows Mobile devices allows Thomson Reuters to broaden its wireless service to a much wider customer-base.
