Bloomberg Enterprise Data

Bloomberg's Enterprise Data continues to be a market leader and the enterprise data provider of choice for the financial services industry. Our offering includes market leading data, analytics and data delivery via a fully managed platform. Our committed customer base appreciates the quality of our content, completeness of our coverage, data delivery, technology and high touch client service model.

Bloomberg Risk & Investment Data Analytics (RIA)

We continue to lead through innovation and a best-in-class product that services client demand for data driven solutions and analytics to some of the toughest questions and problems facing our client base today.

Currently the RIA business includes our award winning Liquidity Assessment Tool (LQA) that affords our clients the ability to manage market liquidity across multiple asset classes for a single security, or portfolio of securities, for a variety of reasons including regulatory reporting, risk management and pre and post-trade analysis. Our liquidity product offers a full trade lifecycle and workflow solution allowing clients to seamlessly embed our data driven outputs and liquidity metrics within their own enterprise workflow across multiple functions and areas.

Using the same data driven approach the team has gone beyond liquidity risk and now provides clients with an Early Alerts (EA) product that uses our rich data and machine learning expertise to help identify fixed income securities that have a high likelihood to move (higher or lower) over multiple time horizons. This has applicability across risk management, trading (execution) and portfolio management.
Through innovation and a deep understanding of our client workflow and their challenges around risk management, business support (middle and back office) and trading we intend expanding this offering with the intention to further drive and enhance our suite of client solutions to complex client problems.
