Reuters is a global news agency and information services provider headquartered in London, United Kingdom. The organisation operates as part of Thomson Reuters, a multinational media conglomerate formed in 2008 through the acquisition of Reuters Group by the Thomson Corporation. Reuters delivers news, data and analysis to media organisations, financial institutions, businesses and individuals worldwide, covering politics, economics, markets, technology, health and other sectors. The agency maintains a network of journalists and correspondents in more than 200 locations across the globe, producing content in multiple languages. Reuters is widely regarded as one of the world's leading sources of breaking news and financial market information, with its real-time data feeds and terminals used extensively by traders, investors and analysts. The organisation adheres to the Reuters Trust Principles, which mandate independence, integrity and freedom from bias in its reporting. In African business coverage, Reuters frequently reports on economic indicators, central bank decisions, commodity markets and corporate developments across the continent. The agency was founded in 1851 by Paul Julius Reuter in London, initially transmitting stock market quotations between London and Paris via telegraph.
