Moody’s buys news alerts

Moody’s Corporation has bought Acquire Media (AM), an aggregator and distributor of curated real-time news, multimedia, data, and alerts, from Naviga, Inc., for an undisclosed cash price.

AM’s patented technology platform ingests information from over 18,000 global content sources, including media outlets, blogs, websites, government regulatory commissions, and social media, then distributes curated real-time feeds and alerts to customers across the financial services, corporate and media sectors. The transaction complements both Moody’s 2017 acquisition of company data provider Bureau van Dijk and its January 2020 acquisition of Regulatory DataCorp, a provider of anti-money laundering data.
