Hoover’s Adds International Company Coverage from Mergent
Hoover's, Inc. and its London-based subsidiary, Hoover's Online Europe, Ltd., have announced they are expanding international company coverage on the organization's six business research Web sites. Through an agreement with Mergent, formerly part of Moody's Investors Service and a leading provider of global business and financial information on publicly traded companies, Hoover's users can find the expanded coverage on Hoover's Online (http://www.hoovers.com); Hoover's Online UK (http://www.hoovers.co.uk); and the company's local-language sites in France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. As part of the agreement, Hoover's is integrating into its Web sites Mergent's company information on nearly 9,000 non-U.S. publicly traded companies. Hoover's users can now access Mergent content, including company descriptions, contact information, officer and subsidiary lists, and 3 years of financials. Mergent information is being added to both the free and subscription areas of Hoover's Web sites. Hoover's CEO Patrick Spain said, "While Hoover's already covers more than 4,600 companies outside the U.S., this agreement allows us to quickly expand our coverage to more than 90 percent of the non-U.S. global market capitalization, meeting customer demand for more information on companies around the world."
