Jinfo: And Then There Were Two - Thomson Reuters' Acquisition of PLC

And Then There Were Two - Thomson Reuters' Acquisition of PLC
Jinfo Article

8th January 2013

Abstract

What will Thomson Reuters' acquisition of the Practical Law Company mean for customers in law firms? Can they expect cost savings, or - bearing in mind that the company has fallen foul of European Commission antitrust rules recently - might TR become too dominant among legal information providers? Survey data from FreePint suggests that, after expenditure on the Big Three - TR, LexisNexis and PLC - there's currently little left over for content from other players such as Bloomberg or Wolters Kluwer.
