Bloomberg hosts a large amount of data from 3rd-Party data providers and Exchanges, such as news, equities, research reports, earning & estimates, bonds, FX, derivatives, muni, etc. Bloomberg clients need permission (be entitled) to use the data because different data providers have different policies and rules for who can access their data, which might require data fees.
