(TSE Mothers: 9399), China's premier financial services and media company,
today announced the launch of its online China corporate database service,
Xinhua Finance China Insight(TM).
The Xinhua Finance China Insight platform combines the most comprehensive
database of information on all Chinese publicly traded companies including
exclusive news and ratings information, all within one integrated platform
using software developed by Mergent Inc, the global business and financial
information provider that Xinhua Finance acquired last year.
The database, accessed by clients through payment of a monthly fee,
includes all China's 1,300 listed companies with six years of financial
history and allows for full comparative analysis between companies.
Jonathan Worrall, CEO of Mergent, who is also in charge of Xinhua
Finance's data products, said Xinhua Finance China Insight is a groundbreaking
product for both the company and the China market.
"The Xinhua Finance China Insight platform allows for full analysis on
China listed companies," Mr Worrall said. "The investment community has
reached the stage where it needs to treat China listed companies on the same
level and in the same way as listed companies on other markets, and China
insight allows them to analyze them in exactly the same terms."
Xinhua Finance CEO Fredy Bush welcomed the launch of Xinhua Finance China
Insight.
"This product reflects the strength and depth of Xinhua Finance's China
data, news and information, and also the technical superiority of Mergent's
