What exactly is the "Academy of Investment"<br />
and how does the TMS training system work?<br />
The training system of TMS is very large and<br />
depends on the products and targeted groups.<br />
We provide online training (webinary) as well<br />
as stationary in selected cities. Stationary<br />
training is organized under the brand GO4X<br />
and it’s designed for those who are taking the<br />
first steps into the forex market. Training is a prelude<br />
to investing and it shows how to use a platform.<br />
Coaches discuss all of the financial instruments, and<br />
various situations on the market for participants to be<br />
able to better select the appropriate order. They teach<br />
the fundamentals of Technical Analysis and what<br />
aspects are most important about charts.<br />
The Academy of TMS Direct investment is training<br />
for advanced players. The topic range here is much<br />
more <strong>com</strong>plex. The platform itself is <strong>com</strong>plicated and<br />
therefore a large part of training is devoted to using it.<br />
Both classes – Technical Analysis and Financial<br />
instruments are also taught on this advanced level.<br />
We also organize seminars for Financial Institutions.<br />
TMS offers a Data Sharing programme. How does<br />
this work?<br />
We have developed a system for the distribution of<br />
data specific to the currency market. This system<br />
allows us to provide <strong>com</strong>ments, analysis and reports<br />
for the Polish media and most of our online applets<br />
with quote rates are available on many portals in<br />
Poland. Entirety is based on barter contracts, which<br />
govern the entire legal process for data transmission.<br />
What benefits do your partners get from it?<br />
We cooperate with journalists from radio, television,<br />
newspapers and the Internet and we have our own TV<br />
studio. Providing them with knowledge, <strong>com</strong>ments<br />
and our analysis, we help them to work. We take part<br />
in radio and television programs, <strong>com</strong>menting on<br />
current market situations, and also have own blogs.<br />
One blog is from our chief analyst, the other blog is a<br />
result of the collective work of the Advisory<br />
Department. Additionally, online applets containing<br />
quote rates, every day help medium and small<br />
businesses in conducting their currency exchange<br />
activities.<br />
In what ways has the extensive experience of TMS<br />
in the Polish market helped you to attract a wider<br />
range of corporate and individual clients?<br />
Building trust in business is not a simple thing. It<br />
cannot be achieved in a single day. We are always<br />
looking for new ways to reach customers and to show<br />
them that TMS is a professional <strong>com</strong>pany with strong<br />
roots. We try to be innovative in the way we reach<br />
customers. Apart of standard media - radio, television,<br />
press and well-known Internet portals we also use<br />
<strong>com</strong>munications channels such as the social<br />
networking sites of Facebook, or Twister<br />
mikroblog and it’s Polish counterpart Blip.<br />
The Polish Financial market is new and in my<br />
industry, I can honestly say that we are a<br />
pioneer from whom the <strong>com</strong>petition is<br />
copying ideas.<br />
Looking ahead, what plans do you have for<br />
expanding the regional footprint of TMS to<br />
take advantage of new business<br />
opportunities elsewhere?<br />
We have been considering expanding TMS<br />
beyond Poland for some time. Having a<br />
strong and well enough established position<br />
in our own region gives us the freedom to<br />
look further afield. This is one of the projects<br />
on which we are working now, but I would<br />
not like to share the details of this just yet.<br />
