CanDeal, a provider of Canadian financial markets, data and information services, has announced a partnership with IHS Markit.
The firm will integrate its proprietary market data into the IHS Markit platform to provide a new level of fixed income price accessibility for the Canadian market.
With an objective to address ���one of the most pressing��� issues facing the Canadian capital markets, CanDeal Data and Analytics (DNA) will use its accuracy of dealer-sourced pricing to address the issue.
Leveraging the data for Canadian fixed income market participants has been a lingering challenge for decades due to insufficient accessibility solutions, according to CanDeal.
By integrating CanDeal���s 1pm, 3pm, and 4pm snapshot pricing, IHS Markit customers will have access to market datasets and will be able to make better-informed pre and post-trade decisions while mitigating market risk.
Krishna Shetty, executive director of fixed income business development at IHS Markit, says: ���Canadian institutions need tools that are tailored for their market. Providing CanDeal���s pricing alongside IHS Markit���s evaluated bond pricing will give customers the right tools for their valuation, risk management and trading needs from a single provider. We are excited to partner with CanDeal to provide additional coverage and transparency to our Canadian customer base and those trading in the Canadian market.���
Robin Hanlon, director, product marketing and sales at CanDeal Data and Analytics, adds: ���There���s a shift taking place in Canadian fixed income markets that is being driven by greater access to data and broader adoption of analytics tools.
���A major player like IHS Markit leveraging CanDeal���s fixed income data will help accelerate this positive momentum and continue to bring the efficiencies to Canadian bond markets that participants have been seeking for years.���
