TNS expands US strategy of full-stack market data management to EMEA and brings on key hire Ben Myers to lead Strategic Sales in region

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

TNS can now deliver market data services across the entire trading infrastructure stack. This new, ‘one-stop-shop’ offering is the result of the acquisition of West Highland Support Services, a financial market data solutions provider.

Having successfully rolled out this enhanced capability in the US and with TNS’ expansive network and coverage in region, TNS and West Highland services are now available to EMEA customers as a single, combined offering, including connectivity, monitoring, and consulting to financial markets participants. Clients can immediately leverage TNS as a single point of contact to manage the full scope of all consolidated feeds and normalized data solutions, reducing complexity and enhancing visibility through its range of managed application tools.

“This new combined offering strengthens our commitment to providing financial institutions with the very best agnostic support services and trading infrastructure in EMEA. We are also delighted to have Ben Myers join our London-based TNS Financial Markets team as Head of Strategic Sales for EMEA, to bolster our presence in the region,” said Tom Lazenga, General Manager, TNS Financial Markets.

With more than 15 years’ experience in financial markets and trading technology, Ben Myers has worked at IBM, Thomson Reuters, and most recently ICE Data Services.
