Alisa Bowen, head of Reuters.co.uk, said: "Reuters has an extremely powerful global brand, and one that is recognised by more than 95% of consumers in the UK. We are building on this valuable profile by driving more and more consumers to our site where they can experience directly Reuters' unique, spin-free news and financial information."
