REUTERS EXTENDS ITS ORDER HANDLING CAPABILITIES WITH ACQUISITION OF LIBERTY
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

London, September 30, 1998 - Reuters, the global information and news group, has
acquired Liberty SA, a subsidiary of Cedel International SA. This acquisition
significantly expands Reuters capabilities in order handling, the electronic
transmission of investment business.

Liberty is a leading provider of electronic links for the global securities
markets offering order routing and order management services. Liberty, which has
some 150 clients, also provides links to other trading processes such as
clearing and settlement.

The value of the net assets acquired and the cost of the acquisition are not
considered material to Reuters. The acquisition will be funded out of the
existing cash resources of Reuters.

Reuters is developing an order handling business providing `straight through
processing' which will enable its clients to automate the trading process,
manage order flow and reduce their costs. This strategy will also respond to the
growing requirements for cross-border trading.

The acquisition of Liberty follows Reuters recent investment in GL Trade which
provides accesses to electronic stock exchanges. Reuters will complement these
capabilities with system solutions and integration for customers who require
enterprise-wide order management systems.

Reuters and Cedel Bank have separately agreed to develop further `straight
through processing' links which will allow customers to clear and settle
transactions in Cedel Bank.

Peter Job, Reuters chief executive, said: "We intend to become a prominent
supplier of order handling capabilities for the securities markets. The purchase
of Liberty is a significant milestone in this strategy."

Note to editors

Background
Stock exchanges are automating and consolidating to offer cost-effective pools
of liquidity with electronic gateways for execution. Market participants need to
improve profitability through lower costs and reduced risk as well as to develop
standardised trading processes. There is therefore a need to create electronic
links at all levels to trade and process investment business.

Reuters is meeting this need by developing an order handling capability, i.e.:
the electronic handling of various stages of the securities business.

Order management systems are used in the front offices of brokers, traders and
investment managers to manage enterprise-wide order flow and external links.

Order routing systems allow counterparties to route and manage orders and
indications of interest between themselves. Stock exchange gateways systems
deliver order information and trading access to electronic stock exchanges.
Indications of interest are the indicative order messages communicated between
market participants.`Straight through processing' is the development of the
entire trading process into an efficient electronic process.

Cedel Group
Cedel Group was created in September 1970 and its shareholders consist of the
world's major financial institutions. On 1 January 1995 a new corporate
structure was introduced, establishing for the first time a parent, Cedel
International, with subsidiary companies, including Cedel Bank, the
International Depository, which contains the core clearing and settlement
business of the former 'Cedel'. The Bank is assigned short-term and long-term
ratings of A1+ and AA+ respectively by Standard and Poors and F1+ and AA
respectively by FITCH IBCA and holds USD 1.6 trillion of customers' securities
in safekeeping; trades worth up to USD 100 billion are settled in a business


day. In September 1997 a new subsidiary, Cedel Global Services (CGS) and a
sister company to Cedel Bank, was established. CGS brings together the IT
Development and Operations functions of Cedel Bank and will provide securities
processing services to the Bank. In the longer term, CGS will respond to
increasing market demand for centralised securities processing.

GL Trade (GL)
On 29 July 1998 Reuters acquired a 33.5 per cent stake in GL. GL, formerly known
as GL Consultants and based in Paris, is a leading developer of interactive
software which links equities traders to electronic exchanges in order to
monitor the market and enter orders. Reuters has additionally entered into an
agreement to market GL's electronic gateway technology. To date, GL has
developed over 20 interfaces to electronic exchanges. This agreement will enable
members of stock exchanges who are also Reuters clients with open systems to use
GL's electronic gateways to link to their exchanges.

Reuters acquired its stake in GL from Societe des Bourses Francaises (SBF-Bourse
de Paris), the Paris stock exchange, and the founders of GL. SBF retains control
over GL.
