FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

November 3rd, 2011 - ISI Emerging Markets, the leader in hard-to-get information on Emerging Markets, is proud to announce a launch of a new, regional Emerging Markets Information Service (EMIS) product for Central America and The Caribbean.

Emerging Markets Information Service (EMIS) Central America and The Caribbean preserves the deep, rich country-level company information, research and news that EMIS users have come to depend upon to make profitable decisions in countries where quality information can be difficult to find, but also delivers the broader, regional scope most requested by our users with interests in the region, by combining content from seven Central American countries with 25 from The Caribbean region.

"Costa Rica has recently been ranked as the top rated Central American or Caribbean country for future foreign direct investment, and the 7th safest destination in Latin America, attracting more than 227 new investment projects since 2003," says Felipe Palacios, Regional Product Manager - Latin America, EMIS.  "Our new Emerging Markets Information Service (EMIS) for Central America and The Caribbean will provide the deep company and industry information that our subscribers need to make more profitable decisions in the region."

EMIS Central America and The Caribbean delivers unique transparency into often opaque markets by providing more than 700 hard-to-find public and private company profiles, along with current and historical financials, ownership structure, and industry detail. 

The new product also makes available more than 400 publications from leading global and local data providers, as well as the latest news and business information, stock indexes and prices, research and analysis from top brokers, and macroeconomic data and forecasts from the acknowledged global leader CEIC data.

Although the breadth and depth of data in EMIS Central America and The Caribbean is new, users will be pleased to find that the product shares the same intuitive navigation, powerful email alerting, advanced search capabilities, and customization features which set all Emerging Markets Information Service (EMIS) products apart as some of the industry's easiest to use.
