NEW YORK, June 20, 2006
YOUDEVISE & RELEGENCE ENHANCE TRADE IDEA MONITOR WITH STOCK NEWS, INFORMATION & "HEAT" INDICATORS
NEW YORK, June 20, 2006 - youDevise Limited and The
Relegence Corporation today announced an agreement that enables instant access to
Relegence's news, information and "heat" indicators for users of youDevise's Trade Idea
Monitor - the fast growing electronic communication system sell-side brokers are
employing to send time-sensitive trade ideas to institutional investors, hedge funds and
proprietary trading desks. Trade ideas are specific recommendations that tell a client
when to buy or sell an equity, long or short, their reasoning, and how much money to
commit to the trade.
"A key value of the Trade Idea Monitor (the TIM), is fast access to the best trade
ideas brokers have to offer in a format that makes it easy for recipients to promptly put
the information to work," said Colin Berthoud, Director of youDevise. "Through
Relegence, the TIM is now able to offer equally fast access to news in a value-added
format that helps users take further advantage of trading opportunities. If a trader likes
the idea and trusts the broker, they can click to see what the rest of world is saying, then
decide. No need to waste time switching to another screen or computer, and then hunting
for the information."
"We are pleased to partner with youDevise and pair the world's fastest-growing
trade idea communication and management system with our cutting-edge technology to
create a must-have tool for brokers, institutional investors, hedge funds and proprietary
trading desks," said Steve Fadem, Relegence's president and chief executive officer.
"Relegence is the ideal partner for the TIM's growing number of users in the U.S., U.K.
and Japan. We feature news and information from 20,000 global information services, in
multiple languages, and simultaneously monitor, index, and filter content from local and
international newswires, television, blogs, email, regulatory feeds, and the businessoriented
web."
Relegence is being offered as a premium add-on feature for the TIM. For an
additional cost, news from Dow Jones and other wire services can also be integrated
through Relegence.
The TIM is accessed using a standard Internet browser on an on-demand basis,
enabling customers to initiate use within a day. Detailed equity ideas are securely
transmitted and stored at the Repository & Distribution Center, which youDevise
developed as an industry utility for Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Dresdner Kleinwort
Wasserstein and Merrill Lynch. Prior to the TIM, sell side ideas were communicated via
telephone, email or by manually keying them in to multiple client systems. Money
managers tracked them on paper, spreadsheets, or via custom systems.
The TIM was introduced in the U.K. in October 2005, February 2006 in the U.S.,
and on Reuters 3000 Xtra terminals in April 2006.
