Fortis Investment Banking and Los Angeles-based buy-side firm TCW have each entered new licensing agreements with investment research distribution engine Multex.
For Fortis Investment Banking, Multex has extended its existing Application Service Provider (ASP) agreement to provide its BuzzPower collaboration platform, offering new front-page functionality, email alerts and improved Web site navigation. Once implemented, Fortis analysts throughout Europe will be able to post information updates on the site for real-time viewing by associates and client.
At TCW, Multex is to host a solution providing analysts with a secure, searchable database of archived proprietary research alongside third party comment and analysis from brokerages and investment banks.
