Reuters Expands Commodities And Energy Coverage

Reuters has signed an agreement with Tradition Financial Services to deliver TFS pricing services via several of Reuters desktop products.

Under the terms of the service, Reuters customers worldwide can access TFS’ benchmark over-the-counter non-US Coal prices and Pulp & Paper prices for the United States and Europe, including historical data, through desktop products such as Reuters 3000 Xtra and Reuters Market Monitor, amongst others.

Subscribers to Reuters real-time Coal service can now also receive TFS’ regular OTC coal market commentary.

TFS’ pricing information is designed to provide decision support to financial markets professionals in the OTC energy and commodities derivatives markets, as well as commodity analysts, industry managers, engineering and consulting companies, researchers, and financial journalists.

David Jenkins, Director of European Energy Products for TFS, said: "Reuters is developing premium data products with increasingly tailored and specialist market data in tune with changing and expanding market requirements. The addition of our data to Reuters services delivers a powerful and comprehensive tool to those trading in the OTC commodities derivatives markets."
