LONDON / NEW YORK, May 20, 2014 - (ACN Newswire) - Thomson Reuters, the world's leading source of intelligent information for businesses and professionals, today announced the delivery of several significant enhancements to its award winning Accelus Risk Manager, which will enable organisations to further strengthen their approach to enterprise risk management.
