Ocean Wall is a London merchant bank whose analysts are paid to be early. They track companies, stocks and whole sectors where a single news story can move a position, which makes "who hears it first" a live commercial question rather than a bragging right. They use journalist.net media monitoring, and they sent us the account below. We reproduce it in full, partly out of pride and partly because it explains the product better than we do.
In their words
“In finance, information is everything and speed matters. Ocean Wall adopted journalist.net to help us stay consistently on top of fast-moving news cycles across the companies and sectors we track.
“The impact of having instant email alerts for the wide range of terms we need to monitor, whether specific companies or stocks, sector themes, or areas of research, has been immediate. Being among the first to see when one of our corporates is mentioned helps us respond quickly, stay close to developments, and move with confidence. On the research side, it has become a dependable way to keep on top of sector shifts as they happen, without having to manually check multiple sources throughout the day.
“Journalist.net has quickly become an essential part of our daily workflow. It is a simple idea executed exceptionally well, and for a team where staying informed is a competitive advantage, it has been truly valuable.”
For a team where staying informed is a competitive advantage, it has been truly valuable.
