TheBullionDesk Ltd Changes Its Name To FastMarkets Ltd

TheBullionDesk Limited, providers of rapid news,
commentary and data for the world’s metal markets, announces a change in the company
name to FastMarkets Ltd with immediate effect.

TheBullionDesk Limited currently operates two specialist websites: TheBullionDesk.com and
BaseMetals.com which provide fast, reliable and comprehensive sources of real-time market
information to their respective market sectors. The Company has a successful track record in
operating busy financial websites using state-of-the-art technology to stream real-time
market data, to provide rapid market commentary from its in-house editorial team and
giving access to exclusive in-depth market analysis from leading trading institutions.
We are changing the company name to reflect the growth of the business from the original
website TheBullionDesk.com into other commodity markets. The URLs of the respective
websites remain unaltered.

Commenting on the name change Joint Managing Director and co-founder Dominic Hall said:
“our new name communicates the essence of our business as a provider of real time expert
information products and services to commodity niche segments".
Co-founder and Joint Managing Director Ross Norman added: "The new name gives us the
scope to launch new, highly active financial websites with the same rapid delivery model as
our original one, TheBullionDesk.com. The new name also reflects the speed with which our
two current websites respond to market conditions – be it market news, data or research.”
