The Wall Street Journal has struck a deal with mutual fund tracker Morningstar to provide fund data and information on its Web site, according to a release Tuesday.
The resources are now available to users of WSJ.com free of charge. Morningstar will also provide daily price and performance data for the fund listings service published in the European and Asian print editions of The Journal.
The Morningstar tools are housed in WSJ.com’s Markets Data Center and allow users to access more than 40,000 Asian, European and Offshore investment funds and analyse them against peer groups.
“We are always looking for new ways to provide a more robust experience for our users, and working with Morningstar for these enhancements to our Markets Data Center will assist even more people in finding the information they seek regarding international mutual funds,” said Almar Latour, managing editor of The Wall Street Journal Online, in a statement.
