LEXISNEXIS STRENGTHENS GLOBAL EMERGING MARKETS CONTENT
WITH ADDITION OF BUSINESS MONITOR INTERNATIONAL

LexisNexis Butterworths Tolley, Europe’s leading provider of business intelligence, has given end-users even greater insight into worldwide global emerging markets with the addition of licensed content from Business Monitor International (BMI).

BMI is recognised as the unrivalled leading source of specialist news analysis, data and forecasts on financial, economic and political developments across emerging markets worldwide.

From 22 March, subscribers to the LexisNexis service of over thirty three thousand global sources have access to a source of premium country information, significantly increasing the availability of this valuable data to end-users.

The full licensing of BMI content, which complements existing data from The Economist Intelligence Unit and World Markets Research, sees the inclusion of comprehensive, specialist information on the world’s emerging markets, from breaking news backed up by in-depth weekly, monthly and quarterly macroeconomic performance, to political risk and market forecasts.

Governed by a unique risk rating system developed by BMI to benchmark the most important 70+ emerging market countries, this premium content is an indispensable tool for fund managers, strategists, risk researchers and any business professional involved in emerging markets and investment decision making.

“A pedigree as the leading provider of specialist information on emerging markets, coupled with their recent online developments makes BMI a perfect partner for LexisNexis,” says content relations manager Mike Ridgway. “BMI content builds upon existing LexisNexis country and company information to provide our customers with unrivalled depth and quality of information, helping them to gain a critical head-start in the business decision-making process.”
