Based on the two-year, global agreement between Thomson Financial and Pictet, Thomson ONE Analytics will initially be deployed on over 120 users’ desktops in seven locations worldwide.
Mr. Michel Mermoux, Data Feed Manager, Pictet commented: “Using the Thomson ONE Analytics application, fund managers and analysts in our offices around the world can integrate information vital to our investment research process to help them successfully identify investment opportunities.
