TIM Group is a privately owned technology company, developing and operating web-based solutions for the financial services industry, based in The City of London. TIM Group's solutions are used by investment banks, brokerage firms, hedge funds, asset managers, and funds of hedge funds (FoHF) in the US, Europe and the Far East.[1]

The company's software and services help investors achieve market-beating returns by connecting them with providers of investment insight.

On 15 March 2011, TIM Group merged with First Coverage, provider of web-based tools which provide an alpha capture system, a media sentiment engine, and meeting management tools. The combined company operates under the TIM Group name and provides a global network for institutional investors and brokerages.[2] TIM Group was known as YouDevise Limited before 2011.[3]

In May 2017 TIM Group was acquired by Acuris (formerly Mergermarket Group).[4]
