History

[edit]

Thomson Corporation

[edit]
Main article: Thomson Corporation

The forerunner of the Thomson company was founded in 1934 by Roy Thomson in Ontario as the publisher of The Timmins Daily Press.[8] In 1953, Thomson acquired the Scotsman newspaper and moved to Scotland the following year. He consolidated his media position in Scotland in 1957, when he won the franchise for Scottish Television. In 1959, he bought the Kemsley Group, a purchase that eventually gave him control of the Sunday Times. He separately acquired the Times in 1967. He moved into the airline business in 1965, when he acquired Britannia Airways, and into oil and gas exploration in 1971, when he participated in a consortium to exploit reserves in the North Sea. Following the death of Thomson, the company withdrew from national newspapers and broadcast media, selling the Times and the Sunday Times to Rupert Murdoch's News International in 1981, and instead moved into publishing, buying Sweet & Maxwell in 1988. The company at this time was known as the International Thomson Organization Ltd (ITOL).[9]

In 1989, ITOL merged with Thomson Newspapers, forming the Thomson Corporation. In 1996, the Thomson Corporation acquired West Publishing, a purveyor of legal research and services (including Westlaw).[10]

Reuters Group

[edit]
Main article: Reuters Group

The company was founded in 1851 by Paul Julius Reuter in London as a business transmitting stock market quotations.[10] Reuter set up his "Submarine Telegraph" office in October 1851 and negotiated a contract with the London Stock Exchange to provide stock prices from the continental exchanges in return for access to London prices, which he then supplied to stockbrokers in Paris.[10] In 1865, Reuters in London was the first organization to report the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.[10] The company was involved in developing the use of radio in 1923.[10] It was acquired by the British National & Provincial Press in 1941, and it first listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1984.[10] Reuters began to grow rapidly in the 1980s, widening the range of its business products and expanding its global reporting network for media, financial and economic services. Key product launches included Equities 2000 (1987), Dealing 2000-2 (1992), Business Briefing (1994), Reuters Television for the financial markets (1994), 3000 Series (1996) and the Reuters 3000 Xtra service (1999).[10]

Thomson acquisition of Reuters

[edit]

The Thomson Corporation acquired Reuters Group plc to form Thomson Reuters on 17 April 2008.[11] Thomson Reuters operated under a dual-listed company ("DLC") structure and had two parent companies, both of which were publicly listed — Thomson Reuters Corporation and Thomson Reuters plc. In 2009, it unified its dual listed company structure and stopped its listing on the London Stock Exchange and NASDAQ. As of October 2022, it was listed only as Thomson Reuters Corporation on the New York Stock Exchange and Toronto Stock Exchange (symbol: TRI).[12][13] On February 13, 2025, the company announced that it would switch its US stock listing to the Nasdaq Global Select Market later that month. The company ceased trading on the NYSE at market close on February 24, 2025, and commenced trading as a Nasdaq-listed security on February 25, 2025.[14] Thomson Reuters was added to the Nasdaq-100 index on July 28, 2025 at the stock market open.[15]

Thomson Reuters was ranked first in Interbrand's 2010 ranking of Canadian corporate brands.[16]

In February 2013, Thomson Reuters announced it would cut 2,500 jobs to cut costs in its legal, financial and risk divisions.[17] In October 2013, Thomson Reuters announced it would cut another 3,000 jobs, mostly in those same three divisions.[18]

Market position and Thomson Reuters merger antitrust review

[edit]

The Thomson-Reuters merger transaction was reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice and by the European Commission. On 19 February 2008, both the Department of Justice and the Commission cleared the transaction subject to minor divestments.[19] The Department of Justice required the parties to sell copies of the data contained in the following products: Thomson's WorldScope, a global fundamentals product; Reuters Estimates, an earnings estimates product; and Reuters Aftermarket (Embargoed) Research Database, an analyst research distribution product. The proposed settlement further requires the licensing of related intellectual property, access to personnel, and transitional support to ensure that the buyer of each set of data can continue to update its database so as to continue to offer users a viable and competitive product.[20] The European Commission imposed similar divestments: according to the commission's press release, "the parties committed to divest the databases containing the content sets of such financial information products, together with relevant assets, personnel and customer base as appropriate to allow purchasers of the databases and assets to quickly establish themselves as a credible competitive force in the marketplace in competition with the merged entity, re-establishing the pre-merger rivalry in the respective fields."[21]

These remedies were viewed as very minor given the scope of the transaction. According to the Financial Times, "the remedy proposed by the competition authorities will affect no more than $25m of the new Thomson Reuters group's $13bn-plus combined revenues."[22]

The transaction was cleared by the Canadian Competition Bureau.[23]

In November 2009, the European Commission opened formal antitrust proceedings[24] against Thomson Reuters concerning a potential infringement of the EC Treaty's rules on abuse of a dominant market position (Article 82). The Commission investigated Thomson Reuters' practices in the area of real-time market datafeeds, and particularly, whether customers or competitors were prevented from translating Reuters Instrument Codes (RICs) to alternative identification codes of other datafeed suppliers (so-called 'mapping') to the detriment of competition. In December 2012, the European Commission adopted a decision that renders legally binding the commitments offered by Thomson Reuters to create a new licence ("ERL") allowing customers, for a monthly fee, to use Reuters Instrument Codes (RICs) in applications for data sourced from Thomson Reuters' real time consolidated datafeed competitors to which they have moved.[25]

Reuters purchase process

[edit]

Historically, no single individual has been permitted to own more than 15% of Reuters, under the first of the Reuters Principles, which states, "Reuters shall at no time pass into the hands of any one interest, group or faction."[26] However, that restriction was waived for the purchase by Thomson, whose family holding company, the Woodbridge Company currently owns 53% of the enlarged business. Robert Peston, business editor at BBC News, stated that this has worried Reuters journalists, both because they are concerned that Reuters' journalism business will be marginalized by the financial data provision business of the combined company, and because of the threat to Reuters's reputation for unbiased journalism by the appearance of one majority shareholder.

Pehr Gyllenhammar, Chairman of the Reuters Founders Share Company, explained that the Reuters Trust's First Principle had been waived for the Thomson family because of the poor financial circumstances that Reuters had been in, stating, "The future of Reuters takes precedence over the principles. If Reuters were not strong enough to continue on its own, the principles would have no meaning." He stated, not having met David Thomson but having discussed the matter with Geoff Beattie, the president of Woodbridge, that the Thomson family had agreed to vote as directed by the Reuters Founders Share Company on any matter that the trustees might deem to threaten the five principles of the Reuters Trust. Woodbridge will be allowed an exemption from the First Principle as long as it remains controlled by the Thomson family.[27][28][29][30]

Commercial products and activities

[edit]

Operations

[edit]

The chief executive of the combined company is Steve Hasker, who was the chief executive for the professional division, and the chairman is David Thomson.[11][31][32]

In 2018, the company was organized around four divisions: Legal, Reuters News Agency, Tax & Accounting, and Government.[33]

Former divisions: Intellectual Property & Science, Financial & Risk, Thomson Healthcare, and Scholarly & Scientific Research.

As of 2018, the Financial & Risk division makes for over half of the company's revenue.[34]

Thomson Reuters competes with Bloomberg L.P., in aggregating financial and legal news.[35]

Thomson Reuters subscriptions compete with open access alternatives, accessible through open data and open source aggregators such as Unpaywall, which can help counter the increase in subscription costs (+779% in the 1995–2015 period vs. 58% for the consumer price index).[36]

Merative

[edit]

In 2012, Thomson Reuters sold its Healthcare division to Veritas Capital, who renamed the business Truven Health Analytics.[37] IBM Corporation acquired Truven Health Analytics on February 18, 2016, and merged it with IBM's Watson Health unit.[38] On June 30, 2022, Francisco Partners announced the completion of acquiring Watson Health and launched a healthcare data company named Merative.[39]

Clarivate

[edit]

Clarivate was formerly the Intellectual Property and Science division of Thomson Reuters. Before 2008, it was known as Thomson Scientific.[40] In 2016, Thomson Reuters struck a $3.55 billion deal in which they spun it off as an independent company, and sold it to private-equity firms Onex Corporation and Baring Private Equity Asia.[41][42]

Acquisitions and divestitures

[edit]

In 1998, Reuters Group plc acquired Lipper Analytical as a wholly owned subsidiary.[43] Lipper became part of Thomson Reuters in April 2008, following the merger of Thomson Financial and Reuters. (The Lipper Fiduciary Services and Lipper FMI was purchased by Broadridge Financial Solutions in May 2015.)[44]

The company has been highly acquisitive, completing over 200 acquisitions between 2008 and 2018.[34]

Sponsorships

[edit]

Thomson Reuters has sponsored Canadian golf champion Mike Weir[110] and the Williams Grand Prix Engineering Formula One team.[111] It also sponsors Marketplace, a radio show from American Public Media.

Thomson Reuters, among other media corporations, also donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Clinton Foundation.[112]

Involvement in surveillance

[edit]

Thomson Reuters owns and operates the Consolidated Lead Evaluation and Reporting (CLEAR) database,[113][114][115] which scrapes personal and identifying data for use in law enforcement, corporate security, and fraud investigations.[116] Per the company's marketing, CLEAR compiles public records, phone records, utility records, social media information, credit history, motor vehicle registration data, and automatic license plate reader scans to create files on its subjects.[117] CLEAR has been the subject of numerous lawsuits alleging invasions of privacy and other violations of civil liberties.[118][119][120][121]

In November 2019, two groups of legal scholars and human rights activists called on Thomson Reuters to cease providing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Palantir Technologies access to information through CLEAR, which has enabled the deportation of illegal immigrants. A company representative replied that Thomson Reuters will help the American government and police in active criminal investigations and against threats to national security or public safety.[122][123] In February 2020, a group of Thomson Reuters shareholders criticized the company's involvement with ICE for immigrant tracking.[124]

In 2020, three Reuters investigative journalists, Raphael Satter, Christopher Bing and Jack Stubbs, who were conducting an investigation about a hack-for-hire company based in India, forcefully took a photograph of Kumar, a small scale Indian herbal businessman, for alleged hacker Sumit Gupta of Belltrox.[125] Despite providing identification showing he was not the alleged hacker, Kumar's image was used by one of the three journalists in their story. As a result, the businessman was questioned by the police, suffered reputation damage and business loss, and later relocated to a small town.[126] Reuters later admitted to an error of mistaken identity caused by the businessman's sharing of same address with the alleged hacker.[127]

Notable for its scale and influence in professional markets, Thomson Reuters has faced criticisms over perceived biases in Reuters' coverage, with analyses rating it as left-center despite its neutrality pledges, aligning with documented systemic left-leaning tendencies in mainstream journalistic institutions that can skew empirical reporting on politically charged topics. Internally, it has encountered legal challenges, including a alleging a workplace forum fostered hostility toward white employees through race-based commentary, highlighting tensions in diversity initiatives. These elements underscore its dual role as both a technological innovator serving decision-makers and a provider whose outputs demand for causal fidelity over narrative conformity.

History

Thomson Corporation Origins and Expansion

The Thomson Corporation traces its origins to the media ventures of Roy Thomson, a Canadian entrepreneur born in in 1894, who left school at age 14 and initially worked as a clerk and salesman before entering broadcasting. In 1932, Thomson launched a radio station in , capitalizing on the growing demand for local content during the . By 1934, he acquired his first newspaper, The Daily Press in a gold-mining town, establishing the foundation of what would become Thomson Newspapers through opportunistic purchases of underperforming local publications that he revitalized via cost efficiencies and advertising revenue growth. Expansion accelerated in the post-World War II era as Thomson capitalized on undervalued assets amid economic recovery. Between 1949 and 1952, he purchased additional newspapers in and , building a regional chain that by the mid-1950s comprised over a dozen titles focused on small-town markets where monopoly positions ensured steady cash flows. In 1957, Thomson ventured internationally by acquiring the Kemsley Group, a British conglomerate with 23 newspapers including , for £8 million, merging it with his Scottish holdings to form a transatlantic empire; this move was driven by exchange controls limiting reinvestment in and opportunities in the UK's consolidating press industry. The 1960s marked further UK consolidation, with Thomson Newspapers Ltd. going public on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 1960 and acquiring The Times of London in 1966 for £12 million amid the newspaper's financial distress under previous ownership. Roy Thomson's death in 1976, at age 82, left the enterprise to his son Kenneth, who shifted strategy toward diversification as print media profitability waned due to rising labor costs and competition. By the late 1970s, the formation of International Thomson Organisation Limited (ITOL) facilitated entry into non-newspaper sectors, including travel guides via the 1970 purchase of Jane's Information Group and professional publishing through acquisitions like Wadsworth in 1979, which provided textbooks and reference materials. The formal creation of The in June 1989 resulted from merging Thomson Newspapers Ltd. with ITOL, centralizing operations in and emphasizing electronic information services over traditional print. This pivot intensified in the 1980s with investments in financial data terminals and legal databases, exemplified by the 1980 acquisition of FP Publications for its Canadian assets and subsequent U.S. expansions like the 1986 purchase of Southwestern Publishing for educational content. By the early 1990s, amid declining newspaper margins, the company divested most print holdings—selling U.S. and Canadian dailies in 1995—and acquired West Publishing in 1996 for $3.4 billion, gaining a dominant position in U.S. via the system, which propelled revenue growth into specialized B2B information tools. This evolution reflected a pragmatic response to technological disruption, prioritizing high-margin digital products over commoditized news.

Reuters Founders and Early Development

Paul Julius Reuter, originally named Israel Beer Josaphat and born on July 29, 1816, in , , to Jewish parents, established the news agency after early careers in banking, , and involvement with the emerging telegraph technology. In April 1850, he launched a commercial news and stock price service in , (now ), employing carrier pigeons to transmit information across the 60-mile gap between and where telegraph lines were absent, filling a critical void in real-time financial data dissemination. In 1851, Reuter relocated operations to , opening an in the that leveraged newly available submarine telegraph cables to deliver stock market quotations between , , and other European centers, formalizing the agency's focus on rapid, reliable financial news transmission. This shift capitalized on the causal advantage of over traditional couriers, enabling to outpace competitors by minutes or hours, a edge that proved essential in volatile markets. By integrating pigeons—eventually numbering over 200—with expanding cable networks, the agency bridged infrastructural limitations and built a reputation for speed. During its formative decades through the 1870s, Reuters evolved from a niche stock ticker service to a broader news provider, establishing correspondents in key European cities and supplying bulletins to newspapers and brokers; for instance, it covered the 1859 Italian unification wars and the 1870-1871 with dispatches that informed public opinion and trading decisions. Reuter was ennobled as von Reuter by the King of in for his contributions to communication, reflecting the agency's growing influence. Upon his death on February 25, 1899, Reuters had transitioned to a structure, sustaining operations through family successors and emphasizing in reporting to maintain trust among subscribers.

Merger Formation and Antitrust Scrutiny

The Thomson Corporation announced its agreement to acquire Reuters Group PLC on May 15, 2007, in a transaction valued at approximately £8.7 billion (US$17.2 billion), structured as a combination through a dual-listed company (DLC) framework to form Thomson Reuters. Under the terms, Reuters shareholders received 352.5 pence in cash and 0.16 ordinary shares in the new Thomson Reuters PLC for each Reuters share, while Thomson shareholders exchanged their shares for equivalent stakes in Thomson Reuters Corporation, preserving equivalent economic interests under the DLC. The merger aimed to integrate Thomson's financial data and analytics strengths with Reuters' news and information services, creating a dominant provider in financial markets data. Shareholder approvals for the transaction were secured on March 26, 2008, followed by court sanctions in , , and , enabling completion on April 17, 2008. The DLC structure allowed Thomson Reuters to operate as a single economic entity with unified management and strategy, despite separate listings on the and stock exchanges, with the Thomson family retaining significant control via a 53% voting interest through Founders Shares. Post-merger, the company reorganized into professional divisions focused on legal, tax, accounting, and Reuters news operations. Antitrust scrutiny arose due to the combined entity's potential to control over 60% of key financial markets, prompting investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the . The DOJ concluded on February 19, 2008, that the merger would eliminate direct competition in U.S. municipal securities trading , corporate actions , and global ownership , likely leading to higher prices and reduced innovation absent remedies. To address this, Thomson was required to divest copies of three specific datasets and license related rights to a DOJ-approved buyer within 60 days, ensuring continued competition. The , in its parallel review under Case No COMP/M.4726, approved the merger unconditionally on February 19, 2008, after a Phase II investigation into discrete content sets like real-time pricing data for equities and . While noting high combined market shares in certain segments, the Commission found sufficient countervailing buyer power from large financial institutions and potential entry barriers not prohibitive enough to warrant divestitures. These clearances, alongside approvals from other jurisdictions like and , facilitated the deal's closure without further structural remedies beyond the U.S. requirements.

Post-Merger Evolution and Strategic Shifts

Following the completion of the merger on April 17, 2008, Thomson Reuters undertook significant operational integration, combining Thomson Corporation's strengths in legal, tax, accounting, and scientific information with Reuters Group's global news and financial data capabilities. This period was marked by efforts to streamline overlapping functions amid the global financial crisis, which strained the financial markets segment and led to cost-cutting measures, including workforce reductions. By 2009, the company reported initial synergies but faced criticism for cultural clashes and slower-than-expected performance in merged financial data operations. Leadership transitions shaped early evolution, with Thomas Glocer serving as CEO until December 2011, when he was succeeded by James (Jim) Smith, a long-time Thomson executive focused on . Under Smith, the company pursued divestitures to sharpen focus, selling its Healthcare unit to for $1.25 billion in 2012 and the & Science business to and Baring Asia for $3.55 billion in 2016. These moves reduced diversification into non-core areas and generated capital for reinvestment in high-margin . Steve Hasker assumed the CEO role in March 2020, emphasizing and , including a commitment to net-zero emissions by 2050. A pivotal strategic shift occurred in 2018 with the sale of a 55% stake in the division to Blackstone for an enterprise value of $20 billion, retaining 45% ownership in the rebranded entity. This transaction, closed in October 2018, allowed Thomson Reuters to refocus on three core segments: Legal professionals, Corporates (encompassing , , and ), and News, which together accounted for about 57% of revenues post-deal. The divestiture freed resources to accelerate organic growth and acquisitions in , such as Practical Law Company in 2013, while exiting commoditized financial data competition. Subsequent developments included the full divestiture of the remaining stake to the London Stock Exchange Group in 2021, further streamlining operations toward specialized content and tools. In recent years, strategic emphasis has shifted toward technological innovation, particularly integration to enhance professional workflows. Under Hasker, the company has pursued AI-driven products like CoCounsel, bolstered by the 2023 acquisition of Casetext for legal AI capabilities, and expanded integrations across platforms in 2025. This evolution reflects a broader pivot from broad information dissemination to AI-augmented decision-making tools, with surveys indicating firms adopting such strategies achieve higher revenue growth. Investments in global technology centers, including a hub employing over 1,500, support this focus on scalable, data-enriched solutions amid competitive pressures in .

Corporate Governance and Structure

Dual-Listed Company Framework

Thomson Reuters was established in 2008 through the merger of The Thomson Corporation (Canada) and Reuters Group PLC (UK), adopting a dual-listed company (DLC) structure to integrate the entities while maintaining separate public listings and legal identities for each parent company. Under this framework, Thomson Reuters Corporation, incorporated in Ontario, Canada, and listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), held a controlling interest in the combined operating subsidiaries, while Thomson Reuters PLC, incorporated in England and Wales and listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) and Nasdaq, held a minority economic interest equivalent to its pre-merger ownership in Reuters. The structure ensured that the business was managed and operated as a unified economic entity, with consolidated financial reporting, shared governance, and equivalent cash dividend rights for shareholders of both parents, but with differentiated voting control concentrated in the Canadian entity through holdings by The Woodbridge Company, the Thomson family's investment vehicle, which owned approximately 53% of the voting shares at formation. The DLC framework was designed to address regulatory, tax, and listing considerations arising from the cross-jurisdictional merger, including commitments to preserve ' under law, while allowing Thomson shareholders to retain majority control without immediate delisting of Reuters shares. Contractual arrangements between the two parents aligned their interests, including equalized economic participation in the group's profits and losses, cross-guarantees on debt, and coordinated board representation, with the Thomson Reuters Corporation board overseeing strategy for the combined entity. This setup facilitated the merger's approval amid antitrust scrutiny in multiple jurisdictions, as it preserved minority shareholder protections for former Reuters investors without fully subsuming PLC into the Canadian parent. However, the structure introduced complexities in share trading liquidity, capital raising, and across four exchanges, prompting early evaluation of simplification. In June 2009, Thomson announced plans to unify the DLC structure, citing improved trading efficiency and reduced administrative costs as primary rationales, with approving the scheme in August 2009. The unification, completed on September 10, 2009, involved exchanging each Thomson Reuters PLC ordinary share for one common share in Thomson , resulting in delisting from the LSE and while retaining TSX and NYSE listings under the single Canadian parent. Post-unification, the company operates as a unified with Woodbridge maintaining significant voting influence—approximately 66% of votes through its shareholdings—but without the dual-parent overlay, streamlining governance while preserving key merger-era protections like those for ' news integrity via a separate trusteeship. This evolution from DLC to single-entity structure reflects a pragmatic response to operational inefficiencies, as evidenced by the rapid unification within 18 months of formation, without material impact on minority economics.

Founders Share Company Role

The Thomson Reuters Founders Share Company Limited holds a unique Founders Share in Thomson Reuters Corporation, granting it specific veto rights to protect the company's adherence to the Trust Principles originally established for in 1941. These principles emphasize , the absence of toward any single interest, accuracy, and the separation of news from commercial pressures. The Founders Share Company was created in as part of the merger between and PLC, ensuring that the combined entity's news operations maintained these safeguards despite the Thomson family's majority ownership through Woodbridge Company Limited. This entity operates independently from Thomson Reuters' management and the Thomson family, with its comprising individuals selected for expertise in , , , and , rather than direct affiliation with the company. As of 2018, the directors included figures such as former and media executives, tasked with monitoring compliance and exercising veto power over actions that could undermine the Trust Principles, such as mergers or sales that might compromise news integrity. The Founders Share specifically allows intervention in shareholder votes on key matters, including restrictions on shareholdings that could lead to dominance by any party and vetoes on constitutional changes affecting ' operations. In practice, the Founders Share Company's role extends to advisory input on business decisions impacting the news division, though it does not manage daily operations. For instance, during the 2018 sale of Thomson Reuters' business to Blackstone (forming ), the company reviewed the transaction to confirm it preserved the Trust Principles for the retained news service. This structure balances the Thomson family's economic control—holding approximately 66% of voting shares as of December 2024—with institutional protections against potential conflicts, reflecting a model designed to prioritize journalistic integrity over in news-related matters.

AI-Driven Tools and Developments

Thomson Reuters has pursued AI integration across its since the early , building on R&D efforts dating to 1992, with formal AI applications accelerating post-2020 to enhance information access and workflow automation. On April 15, 2025, the Thomson Reuters Institute published the "2025 Generative AI in Professional Services Report," based on a survey of 1,702 professionals across legal, tax, accounting & audit, risk & fraud, and government sectors. Key findings include nearly half of professionals personally using GenAI (41% public tools like ChatGPT, 17% industry-specific tools); organizational adoption nearly doubling from 12% in 2024 to 22% in 2025; 95% expecting GenAI to become central to workflows within five years; increasingly positive sentiment (55% hopeful/excited); and ongoing challenges such as 64% receiving no GenAI training, 52% lacking policies, and only 20% measuring ROI. The company invested over $200 million in AI technology during 2024, with commitments extending into 2025 to develop proprietary models grounded in domain-specific from legal, , and sectors. This includes leveraging (NLP) for content creation, enhancement, and customer analytics, prioritizing "professional-grade" AI trained on curated, verifiable datasets to minimize hallucinations common in general-purpose models. A pivotal development was the November 2023 launch of CoCounsel, a generative AI assistant designed for legal professionals to perform tasks such as , deposition summarization, and review, drawing on Thomson Reuters' proprietary content libraries for accuracy. In January 2024, enhancements like Search & Summarize in Practical Law integrated generative AI to query and distill guidance from thousands of resources, enabling rapid extraction of precedents and clauses.

By mid-2025, Thomson Reuters advanced to agentic AI systems, launching a platform in June that automates multi-step workflows via autonomous agents, accelerated by the acquisition of AI copilot startup Materia. This included agentic applications for tax and advisory, such as the forthcoming Ready to Review tool for validation, which processes datasets to flag discrepancies and suggest adjustments. CoCounsel Knowledge Search, released July 9, 2025, extended capabilities to federated queries across internal documents, Thomson Reuters content, and external sources, supporting institutional knowledge management. In September 2025, integrations for via Westlaw's Deep Research tool enabled students to simulate advanced queries, fostering skills in AI-augmented analysis. Further momentum came from the October 21, 2025, partnership with DeepJudge to refine next-generation legal AI, focusing on verifiable reasoning chains for case predictions and argument construction, backed by Thomson Reuters' ongoing $200 million-plus AI investments. These tools emphasize human oversight, with built-in citations and audit trails to align outputs with evidentiary standards, reflecting a strategy to embed AI as a force multiplier rather than a replacement for professional judgment.

Acquisitions, Divestitures, and Spin-offs

Major Acquisitions

Thomson Reuters has strategically acquired companies to expand its capabilities in , compliance, and AI-driven solutions, with a focus on integrating advanced and into its platforms. Since 2023, the company has completed six acquisitions totaling approximately $2.1 billion, emphasizing technologies that enhance efficiency for , legal, and corporate professionals. In January 2023, Thomson Reuters acquired SurePrep, LLC, a provider of software, for $500 million in cash. The acquisition aimed to strengthen the company's and offerings by incorporating SurePrep's AI-powered tools for and return preparation, serving over 20,000 tax firms. Later in August 2023, Thomson Reuters completed the purchase of Casetext, Inc., a legal AI firm, for $650 million. Casetext's CoCounsel platform, which uses generative AI for and drafting, was integrated to advance Thomson Reuters' and Practical Law products, targeting improved accuracy and speed for legal practitioners amid rising demand for AI in the legal sector. In 2024, Thomson Reuters finalized its acquisition of Pagero Group, a Swedish e-invoicing and tax reporting solutions provider, following an initial offer of 6.4 billion Swedish kronor (approximately $627 million) that was increased to secure majority control. Pagero's for cross-border compliance was added to bolster Thomson Reuters' ONESOURCE offerings, facilitating in and regulatory adherence. These deals reflect Thomson Reuters' allocation of up to $10 billion for acquisitions, with an annual $100 million investment in AI, to counter competitive pressures from tech disruptors in professional information services.

Significant Divestitures and Spin-offs

In October 2018, Thomson Reuters sold a 55% majority stake in its Financial & Risk (F&R) business to a consortium led by Blackstone for approximately $20 billion, retaining a 45% minority interest in the resulting entity, which was renamed Refinitiv. This divestiture allowed Thomson Reuters to realize significant capital while maintaining some exposure to the financial data and analytics segment, with the transaction closing after regulatory approvals and yielding about $17 billion in gross proceeds to the company after adjustments. In January 2021, Thomson Reuters completed the sale of its remaining 45% stake in Refinitiv to the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) for $6.6 billion in cash plus a $400 million special dividend, fully exiting the business and receiving a total of around $20.7 billion from the combined deals, which funded share buybacks and debt reduction. In July 2016, Thomson Reuters announced the sale of its & business, which provided for , patents, and trademarks, to a led by and Baring Asia for $3.55 billion in cash. The deal closed in October 2016, with the buyer rebranding the unit as Clarivate , enabling Thomson Reuters to streamline operations toward its core legal, tax, and news segments while divesting a non-core scientific information provider that had generated about 7% of group revenue. In June 2011, Thomson Reuters agreed to sell its Healthcare business, focused on clinical data and analytics for providers and payers, to Veritas Capital Fund Management for $1.25 billion, with the transaction completing in 2012 and the unit rebranded as Truven Health Analytics. This divestiture realigned the company's portfolio by separating healthcare from its Intellectual Property & Science operations, allowing focus on higher-margin professional services amid strategic shifts post the 2008 Thomson-Reuters merger. More recently, in April 2023, Thomson Reuters sold a majority stake in , its legal practice management and for mid-sized law firms, to TPG Capital, spinning it off as an independent entity to sharpen emphasis on integrated legal tech platforms. In October 2024, the company entered an agreement to sell its legal marketing services business to , pending approvals, further refining its digital consumer-facing offerings. These moves reflect ongoing efforts to divest peripheral assets and concentrate on core competencies in legal, , and compliance amid evolving market demands for specialized professional tools.

Controversies and Criticisms

Surveillance Technology and Government Contracts

Thomson Reuters provides investigative software tools, notably the CLEAR platform, which aggregates , proprietary data, and real-time information to support and operations. CLEAR enables users to search billions of records for suspect identification, , and case management, drawing from sources including registrations, utility bills, and indicators. The system is marketed to agencies for enhancing criminal investigations, fraud detection, and assessments. Federal agencies have integrated CLEAR into surveillance and enforcement activities. In 2015, U.S. secured access to CLEAR under a contract providing aggregated data for targeting undocumented immigrants, supporting detention and operations. Thomson Reuters Special Services LLC, a subsidiary, holds contracts with the Department of (DHS) for investigations into , , and public safety, including narcotics cases. A 2019 multi-year agreement with the Department of Justice (DOJ) and (FBI) supplies CLEAR and related tools for legal research and investigative workflows. In 2023, the subsidiary won a five-year, $60 million blanket purchase agreement from the Department of Defense (DOD) to bolster global intelligence efforts. These contracts have drawn scrutiny for potential privacy erosions and disproportionate impacts. Advocacy organizations, including the (EFF), have urged Thomson Reuters to assess risks in its ICE data services, arguing that bulk data access facilitates warrantless tracking of immigrants and communities. Reports from groups like the Immigrant Defense Project highlight ICE's reliance on Thomson Reuters data for mass arrests, with over 120 million federal contract awards to the company since 2010 across agencies. Critics contend the tools amplify capabilities without adequate oversight, though Thomson Reuters maintains compliance with legal standards and data protection protocols.

Intellectual Property Disputes

Thomson Reuters has been involved in notable disputes, primarily as a asserting copyrights in its databases. In May 2020, the company filed a against Ross Intelligence Inc., a now-defunct AI-powered startup, in the U.S. District Court for the District of . Ross had scraped and copied thousands of headnotes—editorial summaries of key legal points—and Key Numbers, a system, from Thomson Reuters' platform to train its competing AI model for automated legal analysis. On February 11, 2025, U.S. District Judge , sitting by designation, granted partial to Thomson Reuters, ruling that Ross directly infringed valid copyrights and rejecting Ross's defense. The court analyzed the four factors under 17 U.S.C. § 107: Ross's use was commercial and served as a market substitute for rather than transformative; the headnotes, while based on factual , involved creative selection and arrangement warranting protection; Ross copied the "heart" of the works by taking core analytical content; and the use harmed potential licensing markets for Thomson Reuters' data. This decision marked the first major U.S. federal ruling on in the context of using copyrighted material to train AI models, emphasizing that competitive replication does not qualify as transformative even for technological purposes. The ruling left open issues such as , indirect infringement claims, and the validity of certain compilation copyrights, with Ross filing an to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. Amici curiae supporting Ross, including AI industry groups, argued the decision could stifle by broadly interpreting infringement in scenarios. No other significant or disputes involving Thomson as a primary party have been publicly litigated to comparable prominence, though the company maintains extensive IP portfolios in legal analytics and financial tools.

Internal Workplace Allegations

In 2021, the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs alleged that Thomson Reuters engaged in - and race-based pay at its New York headquarters, affecting 113 current and former female, Black, and Hispanic employees in administrative, technical professional, and client specialist roles. The agency claimed disparities in compensation decisions violated federal contractor obligations under 11246. Thomson Reuters agreed to a settlement paying $550,000 in back wages and interest to the affected class members, along with implementing pay equity training for compensation decision-makers, without admitting liability. In a separate case, former employee Lisa Holmes filed suit against Thomson Reuters in 2019, alleging age discrimination under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and sex discrimination and retaliation under Title VII of the , claiming her 2017 termination as Senior Director in the Tax & Accounting division was pretextual. Holmes asserted the stated reason—violation of the company's policy by failing to disclose her sister's as a subordinate—was a cover for bias, citing vague management comments on workforce demographics. The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of granted to Thomson Reuters, finding no evidence of pretext or retaliatory motive in opposing her unemployment claim, as the investigation confirmed the policy breach and required disclosure. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the ruling on April 7, 2023, emphasizing that Holmes provided no proof the legitimate nondiscriminatory reason was false or that bias influenced the decision. A 2024 lawsuit by former director "Zack" Kriegman alleged a racially under Title VII, claiming Thomson Reuters' internal online forum, "The Hub," fostered anti-white —such as references to "white fragility" and assumptions of manipulative behavior by white women—while suppressing employee dissent on initiatives. Kriegman, who was terminated in June 2021, contended his complaints to leadership about the forum's content triggered retaliation, including his firing after criticizing Black Lives Matter-related posts. Filed on June 7, 2024, in the U.S. District Court for the District of , the suit described a pattern where only white employees faced racialized negative commentary, unchecked by moderation. Thomson Reuters denied the claims, asserting they lacked merit. The parties reached a settlement on January 24, 2025, with terms undisclosed. Thomson Reuters' Code of Business Conduct and Ethics explicitly prohibits , , and , requiring good-faith resolution of claims. Despite these policies, the company has faced employee-initiated actions centered on compensation inequities and perceived biases in internal communications and terminations, often resolved through settlements or judicial dismissals without admissions of wrongdoing.

Media Reporting Bias Claims

Reuters maintains that its journalism adheres to the Thomson Reuters Trust Principles, which require integrity, independence, and freedom from in reporting. Independent bias assessments, such as those from , classify as Least Biased with Very High factual accuracy due to proper sourcing and minimal editorializing, while rates it Center overall, though blind surveys and reviews indicate occasional Lean Left tendencies. An study in 2019 positioned near the center on bias metrics across global outlets. Allegations of have persisted, often tied to specific conflicts or political events, with critics from both ideological sides citing selective framing or factual lapses. In coverage of the Israel-Gaza conflict, journalists in August 2025 accused editors and management of pro-Israel , pointing to disproportionate resources allocated to Israeli narratives over ones in 499 analyzed reports from to November 14, 2023—during which over 11,000 were reported killed compared to fewer —and restrictions on terms like "" or "" without immediate Israeli counterclaims. A notable incident involved the headline for the January 2025 killing of Anas al-Sharif, a former contributor and Pulitzer winner, described as " kills Al Jazeera journalist it says was leader," which critics argued downplayed his professional history and echoed unverified Israeli assertions. rejected the claims, with a spokesperson affirming "fair and impartial" coverage aligned with Trust Principles, and editor Heather Carpenter denying receipt of an internal protest letter that prompted one desk editor's resignation in 2024. Conversely, faced accusations of anti-Israel bias during the 2006 Israel-Lebanon War after freelance photographer Adnan submitted digitally manipulated images exaggerating smoke plumes from Israeli airstrikes to heighten perceived destruction, which distributed before bloggers exposed the alterations. The agency subsequently withdrew 920 photos, severed ties with him, and revised its photo-editing policies to prevent recurrence, acknowledging the manipulations as unethical but defending its broader verification processes. In U.S. political reporting, conservative outlets like claimed left-leaning bias in ' 2020 election coverage, alleging misrepresentation of voter fraud concerns—such as labeling the left-leaning Brennan Center as "non-partisan"—and downplaying evidence of irregularities while emphasizing debunked narratives. Additional critiques have targeted climate reporting for reflexively attributing , like hurricanes, to human-induced change without sufficient causal evidence, potentially inflating alarmism in line with prevailing institutional consensus. These incidents, while not systemic according to bias raters, highlight recurring debates over ' neutrality amid broader media trust erosion, where empirical lapses in verification or framing can amplify perceptions of partiality.
