Fund.com Forms Strategic Alliance With Transparensee to Create Next Generation Search Engine for Mutual Funds and ETFs
12 March 2010 - 1:35AM
PR Newswire (US)
NEW YORK, March 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Fund.com, Inc., (OTC
Bulletin Board: FNDM) announced today that it entered into a
strategic alliance with Transparensee Systems, Inc., New York City,
to develop a next generation search engine for the Fund.com website
to help investors find their best choices among the many thousands
of mutual funds and ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds) available today.
The new search engine is expected to be launched this summer.
Fund.com CEO Gregory Webster stated, "Unlike anything available
today to financial investors, we believe that the new search engine
will give investors more control and more choices over every search
of mutual funds and ETFs. In an easy-to-use format, investors will
be able to search the database for mutual funds and ETFs in real
time to find specific funds that meet their criteria." He explained
that in addition to getting only exact matches, which are typically
supplied in current search engines, investors will be able to get
near-perfect matches that they might not otherwise learn about.
"For example, if the investor is looking for fund managers with at
least ten years experience, our new search engine would also
present funds with investment managers with only nine and a half
years of experience who matched all the other desired criteria."
Webster added, "Finally, investors will no longer be stopped cold
with 'no' or few matches responses. We believe that Fund.com's new
fund search engine will make it easier for investors to find the
right fund for them. We are excited about adding this sophisticated
tool, which uses next generation software, to the fund.com website,
thereby making it the most advanced in the industry." Transparensee
has developed search engines using this advanced technology for
four years. According to CEO Steven Lavine, the technology has
proven itself on such sites as ForRent.com, which lists more than
50,000 apartments nationwide, and the restaurant search capability
of Newsday's ExploreLI.com. Lavine said, "Using this tool,
investors can make much more sophisticated searches, with more
criteria and still find a good match." About Fund.com Fund.com is
