Trading places: Digital Mobility offers Thomson Financial customers real time mobile trading capabilities

[February 15th 2001] In today's share trading environment where every second counts, banking and stock broking customers of Thomson Financial, the leading financial information provider, now have the ultimate weapon - the ability to trade their stocks securely via mobile phone at the touch of a button. 

This has become possible thanks to a partnership between wireless solutions developer Digital Mobility and Thomson Financial Solutions (TFSolutions), which will see TFSolutions extending its existing distribution platform to enable secure, real-time wireless trading of European equities. Digital Mobility's standard-independent solution currently uses WAP on GSM, but is ready for future mobile standards such as GPRS, i-mode, EDGE and UMTS.

"Security and real-time access to information are the keys to ensuring continued demand for the wireless delivery of financial services," said Johan Sjöquist, Chief Operating Officer of Digital Mobility.  "I believe we have succeeded in offering Thomson Financial a fail-safe solution designed to integrate seamlessly into the company's existing platform."  He added, "Clients will have powerful, timely and tamper-proof access to financial information and trading services, and will be able to respond immediately to market fluctuations wherever they are, whatever they're doing."

"This partnership allows us to offer our clients the ground-breaking advantage of genuinely secure wireless trading on the move," comments Gareth Evans, Managing Director of TFSolutions. "It enables access to the most time-sensitive information from GlobalTOPIC, Extel, First Call, Worldscope, Datastream and all other Thomson Financial content-providing companies, giving clients minute-by-minute control over their interests."
