Bloomberg Ticker Plant builds software that manages the storage and distribution of Market Data in Bloomberg. Market Data is information - trades, quotes, and other pricing data - gathered from around the world on every possible kind of financial instrument, from stocks and bonds to currencies and commodities. This often exceeds 100 billion unique events per day.

Our team:

Ticker Plant Feed Logic focuses on building and maintaining libraries and services which Ticker Plant uses to process market data such as Trades, Quotes, Cancel/Corrections, and more. We work closely with business teams to support and develop our systems to be prepared for the next generation of client requirements. We build abstractions and self-servicing processes to empower other engineers within Bloomberg to configure Ticker Plant business logic processing in order to enable faster feature development and to improve stability. Feeds Logic has a global footprint with teams based in New York, London, and Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, our emphasis is on supporting stakeholders within the Asia-Pacific region.
