SourceMedia Announces the Re-Launch of Securities Industry News
Friday 23. January 2009 - SourceMedia, the leading media provider for the global financial community worldwide, today announced the re-launch of Securities Industry News.
Inside the new Securities Industry News, readers will notice a greater emphasis on the publication’s departments — trading, technology, compliance, data management, clearing & settlement, standards & protocols, asset servicing and now, risk management. The expanded editorial direction of Securities Industry News now provides broader coverage of the securities industry and allows for a deeper dive into the vital areas of interest to its readers, such as technology, compliance and operations.
On the expanded coverage, John McCormick, SourceMedia’s Editorial Director, Business Technology & Securities Division noted, “Securities Industry News will deliver more insights, analysis, and practical advice to help our readers not only survive, but succeed in these tumultuous times.” McCormick added, “We’ll be including case studies on ways securities firms can manage more effectively, in-depth articles on how they’re avoiding operational pitfalls, and special reports on the technologies and techniques they’re using to become more competitive.”
The new Securities Industry News will now reach a total of 10,000 qualified subscribers across the securities industry spectrum. The publication will also move from a newspaper to a tabloid size format and will publish 32 issues annually.
According to Rob Whitaker, SourceMedia’s EVP & Managing Director of the Business Technology & Securities Division, the changes for Securities Industry News could not have come at a more appropriate time. Says Whitaker, “While Securities Industry News was already the market leading brand in the securities industry, we wanted to improve and expand our content and build a stronger community.” He went on to say, “The securities market is experiencing unprecedented changes and challenges everyday. Our mission is to serve that community by providing information and analysis that enables our readers to make more informed decisions. The expanded Securities Industry News publication and website will continue be the hub where the securities industry congregates to share ideas, challenges and most importantly, solutions in these uncertain times.”
