Thomson Reuters have announced an expanded suite of eLearning solutions for financial professionals facing increasing financial training requirements.

The solutions will be made available exclusively in Asia before expanding more broadly.

“It is essential that professionals in the financial industry receive top-quality training to ensure regulatory compliance,” said Andrew Rawson, global head of eLearning Development at Thomson Reuters. “The agreement between Present Value Training, with its history in the financial industry, and Thomson Reuters, with its background in compliance training, brings together two global leaders to offer a solution of engaging industry and market-specific training for financial professionals.”

The ‘fitforbanking’ library includes over 180 modules designed for bankers and traders, from basic topics such as fundamentals of quantitative methods and introduction to fixed income, to more advanced topics such as derivatives and valuation of structured products.

“With the increasing volume and complexity of regulations year-over-year, it has never been more vital for firms doing business internationally to continue to invest and support the compliance function by ensuring that staff are adequately trained to meet these regulatory requirements,” said Andrew Neblett, managing director, Enterprise Risk Management, Thomson Reuters.
