EQS Group AG, the leading technology provider for digital investor
relations, is further expanding its presence in the world's most important
financial markets. With the opening of its Paris subsidiary, EQS's French
market entry has now been completed. Achim Weick, founder and CEO of EQS
Group, explains: "We want to further strengthen our market leadership in
Europe. The EU Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) which took effect in July 2016
is an extraordinary opportunity for us to offer our successful Cloud
products across Europe."
Managing Director Peter Van Heeke will take the helm of the company's new
office in the heart of Paris. The 46-year-old Belgium native has a wealth of
experience in investor relations. As Group Sales Director at the former
investor relations provider Hugin, he led the company's European sales
activities and headed up their operations in France. "EQS's unique products
and services are successfully digitizing workflows for investor relations
managers and compliance officers across Europe and the globe. We now look
forward to tapping into demand for EQS's cutting-edge solutions in France,"
says Van Heeke.
EQS's market potential in France has become very apparent in the past few
months. Since MAR took effect, the EQS London office has acquired ten
clients listed on the CAC 40, France's leading index. Peter Van Heeke's new
Paris team will not only bring EQS's "Best Digital IR" to customers in
France, but will also service other Euronext markets such as Belgium,
Holland and Portugal.
EQS's core product, the EQS COCKPIT, provides access to the EQS Financial
Newswire, one of the world's most important distribution networks for the
financial community. French companies will soon be able to use the
regionally adapted version of this cloud-based IR platform, ensuring that
their mandatory disclosure requirements are efficiently and securely met.
Matthias Erler, Director Media Network & Partnerships, played a vital role
in EQS's market entry into France. Erler explains, "We have significantly
expanded our distribution network in France. Our newswire gives French and
international companies the best, most efficient means of distributing their
news and corporate communications to investors, the media and financial
terminals.
