IFR Intelligence Reports Now Available on Sony Reader

Thomson Reuters International Financing Review (IFR), an online news and market analysis service, introduced the Sony Reader as a new platform for downloading market intelligence reports. With each report sold, the company will provide clients with a free Sony Reader preloaded with the content. The free Sony Reader campaign will run throughout the month of September.

 "Thomson Reuters is constantly seeking new opportunities to deliver targeted information to our clients in ways that allow them to access the content they want, when they want it," says Maria Molland, managing director of new ventures at Thomson Reuters. "By providing our industry-leading reports via Sony Readers, we're offering clients yet another way to get at the real-time insight they need on a convenient and easy-to-use platform."

These reports, traditionally published in hard copy, vary in length from 50-70,000 words. Currently, the offer is only for the reports "Investing in Inflation" and "Opportunities in Distressed Debts and Assets"; others will be added. The list price for each report is £695 (about $1,100 U.S.). A company representative says it is "always looking for additional platforms and new partners. We will look forward to receiving feedback from clients on the attractiveness of providing future reports on the Sony Reader, Kindle or other platforms."
