Lseg Expands Product Pipeline, Seeks Improved Profitability in 2025
LSEG's guidance for improved profitability in 2025 is expected to be well-received after the company reported a strong pipeline of innovations to enhance its Workspace product and boost annual subscription values. The company's 2024 income grew slightly ahead of analysts' expectations, with total income rising 8.4% to £8.49 billion on a constant currency basis. LSEG's CEO David Schwimmer highlighted the progress made in its partnership with Microsoft, citing an "exceptional" year for Tradeweb.
