Thomson Financial, an operating arm of The Thomson Corporation and provider of information and technology solutions, signed a contract with investment manager Henderson Global Investors to set up of its fund management software in London, Singapore and Tokyo.
Henderson Global Investors, one of the first European clients in London to adopt Thomson ONE, will set up the application to perform fund management, research analysis and performance measurement functions. Users in Asia will initially use Thomson ONE Analytics and will be upgraded later this year.
“This agreement is a natural evolution to our longstanding relationship with Thomson Financial, which spans over 10 years,” said Lesley Cairney, director of equity operations at Henderson. “This agreement enables us to consolidate and integrate our content requirements at a lower total cost of ownership.”
Thomson ONE Investment Management combines Thomson Datastream’s encyclopedic databases with Thomson’ interactive portfolio analytics service, in addition to Thomson’s global real-time market data, news, estimates, research, and fundamental content.
