Zignals will provide retail investors with state-of-the-art decision-support tools and access to a financially savvy online network that shares its own independently rated investment strategies. Zignals was created through the collaboration of the Microsoft IP Ventures team, Enterprise Ireland, successful entrepreneurs Pat Brazel and Scott Tattersall, Manresa Partners, and angel investors. "The complete absence of personalized service and access to powerful yet usable decision-support tools is often cited by smaller investors as a key constraint on improving the performance of their investment decisions," said Pat Brazel, CEO of Zignals. The highly intuitive services we are building will open up a whole new world for retail investors who want to maximize the effectiveness of their investment efforts without spending every waking hour peering at screens."
