On-line finance news

FIXED telecommunications provider New T & T, owned by Wharf Holdings, has teamed up with financial data services group Data Broadcasting Corporation to launch a new on-line financial information service.

The new real-time financial information service, known as Signal, will deliver stock quotes directly from the stock exchange to a subscriber's personal computer over New T & T's digital network.

New T & T Hong Kong is one of the three new fixed telecommunications providers granted licences last July.
