PR Newswire (US)
NEW YORK, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- TheMarkets.com, a leading provider
of research, estimates and workflow solutions to the buy-side,
announced today that David Krzemienski has been appointed Head of
Contributor Products and Operations. For the past five years, the
Company has distributed research from hundreds of brokers to
leading investment management firms worldwide. While this research
has largely been distributed under third-party distribution
agreements, the Company recently announced that it has begun
receiving content directly from brokers other than its eleven
owners. Based in the Company's New York headquarters, Krzemienski
and his new team are charged with building the organization and
maintaining the software that will support the brokers in
integrating their content sets into the Company's suite of products
for investment managers. TheMarkets.com has long been a leader in
providing unique services to the sell-side, including being the
industry pioneer in establishing user-level research entitlements
control over seven years ago. "TheMarkets.com is looking forward to
expanding the group of contributors we serve through our unique
broker-friendly services," said Krzemienski. "We already have in
place a pain-free feed integration process to get new contributors
up and running as quickly as possible. I look forward, through this
new role, to expanding the benefits of our system to additional
contributors," he said. Since its founding, TheMarkets.com has been
an active participating member of RIXML.org (Research Information
Exchange Markup Language), the consortium of buy-side and sell-side
firms that established an open standard for investment and
financial research. Jack Roehrig, Executive Director of RIXML.org,
said, "From its inception, TheMarkets.com has been an important
member of RIXML.org and an active contributor in advancing our
research standard, making it an ideal choice for brokers seeking a
leading research distribution partner." TheMarkets.com is also an
active member of the industry's Research Entitlements Consortium.
"Our entitlements system provides the flexibility and transparency
the contributor community has been asking for," said Krzemienski.
"Through our system, contributors can completely manage which
clients have access to which content. And this enables
TheMarkets.com to better serve our buy-side clients by delivering
premium content such as earnings models in Excel via a fully
entitlement-compliant, online platform." Krzemienski has served as
Vice President of Technology at the Company since he joined in
2003. Prior to that, he was the senior project manager on the
TheMarkets.com project during its incubation at Sapient
Corporation. David Eisner, CEO and President of TheMarkets.com,
said, "Dave has been a significant contributor to TheMarkets.com
since our founding. We are delighted that he has stepped up once
again to a large new leadership role in our service to our broker
partners. He and his team will guide our efforts as we continue to
lead the industry in building and enhancing broker tools that
significantly exceed standards for tagging, entitlements control,
and other broker requirements, while we work to establish direct
relationships with content providers." About TheMarkets.com
