 REFERENCE DATA: INSTANT AND GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION

Distribution of high quality reference data to multiple market participants can be costly and cumbersome. Issuers contend with many different interfaces and many data models, incurring high overheads. Now, issuing warrants at BME is part of this wide group.

Numerous market participants such as financial institutions, data vendors, investors, technology partners, public authorities and other reference data users are already connected to the CONNEXOR infrastructure and further market participants can be connected. The table below shows some of the services currently available via CONNEXOR.

CONNEXOR. MANY SERVICES, ONE TOOL

CONNEXOR Listing then enables instruments to be automatically admitted to trading, while CONNEXOR Distribution allows non-listed instrument data to be captured and distributed in a standardized manner.

CONNEXOR Distribution does things differently. Reference data is captured electronically in a standardized way, directly at source, even for instruments listed on other exchanges, OTC or private placements. This allows for straight through processing, making data available to any number of data consumers in a standard format, without any changes to content. The process is fast, efficient and eliminates repeated efforts across different interfaces and data models: that’s the CONNEXOR Distribution difference.

CONNEXOR Events is an application that allows issuers to automate some of their reporting processes for structured products, making it easier to electronically submit product event information. Clients then benefit from instant product notifications for events such as barrier breaches, early redemptions and many more.

CONNEXOR Terms displays simple and complex financial instruments in digitized form and originating from the issuer (Golden Source). The service combines data depth and quality with a standardized structure, enabling easy further processing and use of complex reference data.

The offering covers additional services, such as notifications about data updates, issuer reporting on usage as well as integrating key figures.
