"The addition of Verity strengthens our ability to serve a growing global client base, including the world's top investment firms, by helping them to optimize and act on their most valuable asset - their intellectual capital - while enriching workflows with best practices and continuous innovation," said Michelle Tran, President of TMX Datalinx. "Verity brings dynamic new financial data and proprietary analytics, including insider activity, buybacks, executive compensation, institutional holdings, and proven financial industry experts to our team. Together, we look forward to introducing these exciting new capabilities to more than 5,000 TMX Datalinx clients around the world."
Verity's two core product offerings are VerityRMS, a market-leading research management system, and VerityData, featuring enhanced datasets and insights primarily focused on public equity filings.
