I need to find out what new ( & old) products exist, for stock broker research
and for full text accounts for PLCs.
I am looking for something suitable for end-users. The number of end-users is
small, at the moment. The products might be networked, or if there is a vast
price differential, might be used on a stand-alone machine. There may be no
products in this category, as the vendors are pushing Internet delivery.
However, I would be interested to receive your replies. Thanks.
(I work in a firm of chartered accountants)
1. STOCKBROKER RESEARCH : UK and foreign companies.
I am aware of the various online products, some of which I use.
The ICC stockbroker research cdrom : is no longer produced, but that is the sort
of thing.
The names of the vendors (& tel nos) would be enough. Unless anyone knows of a
source for product evaluations on this type of product?
2. FULL TEXT ACCOUNTS (UK PLCs)
I am looking for some solution for end-users, ie corporate subscription website,
or networked cdrom (?)
I used to use OneSource, which has the last 2 years accounts. (Docs could be
emailed)
A company called Pencom used to produce cdroms of all plc accounts, but I do not
know if that company still exists.
I have access to various other sources, Companies House, Internet, Perfect
Information, Bloomberg, ICC, Primark etc. I also have a collection of c. 800
hard-copy accounts. (Does anyone else still have hard-copy accounts??)
For bulk or repeat usage, I need a cdrom product, or at the very least, a
website (subscription?) which has all the accounts for all UK Listed Companies.
It is preferable to have the data in an electronic format, available for the
end-users, & the full text, as filed at Companies House. Much time would
also be saved, as searching the Internet for company websites would not be
necessary. These sites seem to vary in what (free) information they actually
carry.
