By Rik Turner

Ovum, the ICT advisory brand of the Datamonitor Group, with a 25 year history of advising both enterprises and their suppliers on the business value of ICT, published a research note dedicated to DataArt’s expertise in the Capital Markets sector, specifically the needs of Buy-Side financial firms.
