Thomson Reuters Enhances Accelus BoardLink Mobile Offering
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Global Solution Delivers Enhancements for Board Members
LONDON, 08 May, 2013 - Thomson Reuters, the world's leading source of
intelligent information for businesses and professionals, today announced a
range of strategic enhancements to its Accelus BoardLink service, a secure board
workflow solution designed to serve companies as they operate across borders and
involve increasingly mobile, global boards.
The boards of public companies face heightened scrutiny from investors,
regulators and the media, and are therefore increasingly reliant on technology
for support and assistance. The latest developments, shaped in conjunction with
Thomson Reuters board clients, aim to advance the product's mobile offering and
provide innovative tools that streamline the workflow process and help company
directors to meet their objectives.
Thomson Reuters Accelus BoardLink for iPad will now feature surveys allowing
directors to vote on important activities and agenda items for discussion, with
the ability to recycle previous responses to avoid duplication. In addition, a
simplified folder management system allows users to easily navigate their
organisation's books and documents to locate the information of most relevance.
The integration of Apple AirPrint means that materials are now available to
print via Accelus BoardLink for iPad, empowering directors to employ a flexible
approach to their record keeping.
For the first time, Accelus BoardLink will also enable customers to manage their
annotations and synch notes from previous board book versions with current or
updated copies across both the web portal and iPad. This prevents directors from
losing their original notes or having to rewrite them in the run-up to board
meetings. The redesigned reader experience on Accelus BoardLink for iPad now
includes streamlined navigation and enhanced annotational tools to provide
greater efficiency and ease of use to increasingly mobile, time-pressed
directors.
"The latest enhancements to Accelus BoardLink will help the boards of public
companies to better manage their workflow processes and access critical
information on the move," said Andrew Neblett, managing director, Enterprise
Risk Management, Governance, Risk & Compliance, Thomson Reuters. "This next
iteration demonstrates the truly global nature of Accelus BoardLink and the
business value it brings to modern-day boards."
Thomson Reuters Accelus BoardLink iPad app is a powerful tool to support
increasingly mobile board members, along with a secure, web-based board portal
for Corporate and Company Secretaries to manage Board workflow. This enables
users to communicate and share documents, create topic-specific workspaces,
compile and share board books, and have access to critical business intelligence
and board committee documents.
Thomson Reuters Accelus dynamically connects business transactions, strategy and
operations to the ever-changing regulatory environment, enabling firms to manage
business risk. A comprehensive platform supported by a range of applications and
trusted regulatory and risk intelligence data, Accelus brings together market-
leading solutions for governance, risk and compliance management, global
regulatory intelligence, financial crime, anti-bribery and corruption, enhanced
due diligence, training and e-learning, and board of director and disclosure
services.
Thomson Reuters has been named as a category leader in the Chartis RiskTech
Quadrant(TM) For Operational Risk Management Systems, category leader in the
Chartis RiskTech Quadrant(TM) for Enterprise Governance, Risk and Compliance
Systems and has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in its Leaders Quadrant of the

Reuters was also named as Operational Risk Software Provider of the Year Award
