Thomson Financials Investment Management Group is a leading provider of information and technology solutions for global financial services professionals in institutional money management. The company provided its clients with a Microsoft Excel add-in to access financial information, but wanted to improve the product's performance and expandability. After replacing the communication layer with XML-based Web services, Thomson Financial created a smart client application that has improved performance and is opening the door to new business opportunities. Moving forward, the company plans to inject even more power into its smart client solution by implementing smart tags and extending it across Microsoft Office programs.
