Additional revenue growth

"Core Plus":
Reuters sees four key opportunities for further growth beyond its core business. These allow Reuters to expand its addressable market from £6 billion p.a. to £11 billion p.a. and target higher growth areas.

1-Electronic trading
A key trend across the financial markets is that trading is moving from the phone to the screen. Reuters is an established provider of electronic trading systems - its Dealing 3000 product supports an 18,000 strong trading community in inter-bank (dealer-to-dealer) foreign exchange. As dealer-to-customer trading goes electronic, Reuters will launch a multi-asset trading platform for markets including fixed income, derivatives, commodities and energy. Reuters has already started building its presence in these dealer-to-customer markets with the launch of four new systems in 2005, including Reuters Trading for Fixed Income.

2-High value content
Structural changes in the financial markets, including the move to electronic trading and restructuring of sell-side research, are creating demand for new types of content. Reuters will introduce new content sets that provide context, analysis and insight to supplement the news, quotes, company fundamentals and research it currently provides.

3-A new approach to selling content and transactions services to whole enterprises
One of Reuters key competitive strengths is the relationship it has built with customers over two decades by selling enterprise-wide services such as datafeeds and market data systems. Reuters now plans to market these enterprise capabilities more cohesively and sell suites of components, designed to meet a greater proportion of customers' needs in specific growth areas such as algorithmic trading.

4-New markets
Reuters plans to increase investment in new markets. It is scaling up its operations in China and India, building an online presence through reuters.com, mobile phones and IPTV to reach individual investors; and targeting growth in trading of new asset classes such as emissions, weather derivatives and property for further opportunities to launch electronic trading systems.

Um pouco de história


October 1851 -Paul Julius Reuter, a German-born immigrant, opened an office in the City of London which transmitted stock market quotations between London and Paris via the new Calais-Dover cable. Two years earlier he had used pigeons to fly stock prices between Aachen and Brussels, a service which operated for a year until the gap in the telegraph link was closed.
Reuters, as the agency soon became known, eventually extended its service to the whole British press as well as to other European countries. It also expanded the content to include general and economic news from all around the world. The reputation of its service was enhanced by a succession of reporting scoops. For example, in 1865 Reuters was first in Europe with news of President Lincoln’s assassination in the United States.As overland telegraph and undersea cable facilities developed, the business expanded beyond Europe to include the Far East in 1872 and South America in 1874.
During both World Wars, Reuters came under pressure from the British government to serve British interests. In 1941 Reuters deflected this pressure by restructuring itself as a private company. The new owners, the British national and provincial press, formed the Reuters Trust, with independent trustees. The Trust preserves Reuters independence and neutrality. The principles of the Trust were maintained and the power to enforce them was strengthened when Reuters became a public company in 1984.
