32 London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) has launched a new Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint Add-in for its Workspace that makes it easier for finance professionals to access and visualise market data. Available globally through Microsoft AppSource, the LSEG Workspace Add-in lets users explore deals data, build charts with key news annotations and reuse content like tables and slides – all within familiar Microsoft tools. Workspace Add-in is powered by Microsoft’s cloud and productivity platforms and aims to help users make faster, smarter decisions. It is the latest step in the 10-year partnership between Microsoft and LSEG to modernise financial services workflows. MARKETWATCH UK police force uses Microsoft technology to better protect the public Durham Police is using Microsoft technology to speed up public information requests. The UK police force worked with Microsoft Power Automate partner Robiquity to develop bespoke case management systems for legislations. These include Clare’s Law and Sarah’s Law, which help individuals assess potential risks related to partners or ex-partners for domestic violence or abuse, as well as enable parents or carers to request information about individuals who have contact with children, particularly if there are concerns about child sexual abuse. Each request is discussed as part of a Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conference application, with information given by representatives from the police, health organisations, child protection, housing, probation and other organisations. The new management system automates these applications to cut the average time it takes between an individual requesting the information and receiving an answer from the police from 28 to 17 days.
