Our Team

The Feeds team provides the entry point into Bloomberg for global market data and news. We are world leaders in ingesting and normalizing financial data reliably, quickly, and accurately. The data we provide is consumed by applications across the Bloomberg platform and ultimately used by clients making the decisions that drive financial markets. Our mission is to be the most comprehensive and reliable source of financial data in the world.

Our team develops and maintains feed handlers in C++ that process hundreds of billions of events daily from sources including major stock exchanges, news providers, social network feeds, and a wide variety of independent contributors.
We work with teams across Bloomberg to ensure our data is reliable, timely, and complete in a rapidly changing financial landscape. Our projects include both internally driven improvements to our infrastructure and performance as well as responding quickly to external drivers like new financial products and exchange changes.
