Are you struggling to navigate the increasingly complex world of global trade? Imagine the potential competitive edge you could gain by effortlessly managing regulations, customs, and supply chains across the globe. Well, Thomson Reuters is making that vision a reality!
TORONTO, December 11, 2025 – Thomson Reuters (TSX/Nasdaq: TRI), a leading global content and technology company, has proudly announced its recognition as a Leader in not one, but two prestigious IDC MarketScape reports. These reports, titled IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Global Trade Management for Manufacturers and Exporters 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc #US53604225, December 2025) and IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Global Trade Management for Retailers and Importers 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc #US51573724, December 2025), solidify Thomson Reuters' position at the forefront of global trade management solutions.
Ray Grove, Head of Corporate Tax and Trade at Thomson Reuters, emphasized the critical importance of effective global trade management in today's landscape: "Global trade has never been more complex or more critical to business success. Our customers are navigating an increasingly intricate landscape of regulatory requirements, customs compliance, and supply chain pressures across hundreds of jurisdictions. We're proud that our ONESOURCE Global Trade solution – serving more than 1,500 companies and over 35,000 trade professionals in 100 countries – is helping them turn that complexity into competitive advantage. At Thomson Reuters, we are committed to delivering the authoritative content, advanced AI capabilities, and seamless integration that global businesses need to thrive."
So, what makes Thomson Reuters' ONESOURCE Global Trade so special? Think of it as your all-in-one command center for navigating the complexities of international commerce. This comprehensive platform offers a suite of tools designed to streamline trade compliance, including robust features for managing regulatory, trade, and customs requirements; import/export operations; trade finance activities; and even Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) management. A key feature is the platform's global dashboards, which provide visual overlays and extensive filtering capabilities, allowing users to quickly summarize vital trade metrics and manage operations by exception. This means you can easily identify and address potential issues before they escalate, saving time and resources. Key strengths include authoritative content, updated more than 130 million times annually and in less than 24 hours, and specialized Latin America coverage tailored to evolving regulations like Mexico's ANAM and Brazil's Siscomex.
Travis Eide, Research Director, Transportation, Logistics, Warehousing, and Global Trade at IDC, highlighted the strategic value of Thomson Reuters' solutions for manufacturers and exporters: "Manufacturers and exporters today need global trade management solutions that go beyond basic compliance to become strategic enablers of growth and efficiency. Thomson Reuters provides manufacturers with the tools to bridge legal, tax, and compliance requirements with operational logistics. The content capabilities combined with their Control Tower dashboards and comprehensive FTZ management, provide manufacturers the visibility and control they need to manage complex trade operations and optimize duty savings across multiple jurisdictions."
