Currently emerging as beta product for testing, the LSEG plans for ELITE Connect to have its wider public launch later in 2015. At that time, it will become available to public companies, investor relations professionals, institutional investors and brokers.
In creating the product, the LSEG believes that the platform will be able to decrease expenditures incurred by public companies related to meeting investors and marketing themselves in the public market. On this goal. Luca Peyrano, Managing Director, ELITE Connect, stated, “We know that approximately 90 per cent of listed companies travel the world to meet asset management firms and spend up to one month a year meeting face-to-face. ELITE Connect will help make investor relations more efficient, more international, and more valuable for all parties.”
