Abstract:
|
In recent times, Reuters, the financial-information firm has accelerated its
efforts to become a more competitive, focused and profitable information
company. Reuters has launched Fast Forward, a three-year action plan which is
intended to strengthen Reuters' core information business. Fast Forward
addresses the impact of structural changes in the financial services industry
including consolidation, reduced headcount, growth in market data volumes and
increasing regulation. As a result of the Fast Forward plan, the number of
employees is expected to fall from 15,900 to around 13,000 by the end of 2006.
Under CEO Thomas Glocer, things are beginning to look much brighter for Reuters.

|
But winning back a major share in the $6.5 billion market for
financial services data remains a big challenge. This case can be used to
illustrate how industry leaders struggle in a rapidly commoditising business.
