Since March, KTS has announced a growing number of blue chip clients for ktsQuoteTerminal, including Royal London Asset Management, Prudential-Bache and most recently Williams de Bro‘.

KTS will be demonstrating ktsQuoteTerminal at the global trading and risk management forum, Dealing with Technology (DWT) 2003 on Wednesday 30th April.

Dr Marc Pinter-Krainer, Chief Executive of KTS, said:

“We’re already feeling the benefits of our sales and marketing team working out of our new City office. As our customers are financial institutions that are predominantly based in the City we wanted our sales team to be well established in their new location as we lead up to the launch of ktsMarketTerminal this summer.”
