Thomson Reuters, the world's leading supplier of intelligent information for businesses and professionals, today announced the launch of a global analysis and commentary service that provides unique, real-time foreign exchange (FX) insight to the FX community. Reuters FX Buzz is integrated into Thomson Reuters premium desktops, Thomson Reuters Eikon and Reuters 3000 Xtra, enabling FX traders to consume and act upon market-changing information through a dedicated one-stop service.

FX Buzz provides users with a clear and concise view of how events impact the FX market, giving them insight that is vital to help support, shape and improve trade decisions and risk assessment.

Based in the key forex centers in Europe, Asia and North America, the FX Buzz editors and analysts, including members of the award-winning IFR Markets Forex desk, will be providing dedicated coverage of G10 currencies plus other major currencies and emerging markets.
