This Financial Insights report presents a comprehensive view of the IT trends, challenges, and opportunities that will shape the U.S. securities and investments industry in 2008. From reporting on the general health of the industry, zeroing in on the fastest-growing geographic segments and top technology buyers, to key IT budget and industry metrics, this guide gives securities and investments firms and vendors a bird's-eye view of everything they need to know to build a go-to-market plan for the coming year.

"Market turmoil is causing near-term slowdown in IT spending, but not all securities and investments firm are feeling the pinch. We expect many IT initiatives to continue, but on a more selective basis at sell-side firms, while efforts will remain on course in the buy-side community." ? Sean O'Dowd, senior analyst, Securities and Investments, Financial Insights
