Interactive Data’s Corporate Actions Service provides cost-effective and flexible options for delivery of our high quality, comprehensive global content.
Timely corporate actions data across the organisation
Interactive Data delivers corporate actions data to help financial firms understand and analyse their risk exposure,
help support investment strategy and trading operations, keep clients informed of pending events that may affect their
decisions – as well as supporting portfolio administration and accounting functions. Failure to properly handle even
a single corporate action, many of which are complex, can result in significant damage to reputation and exposure to
significant financial risk.
By understanding this necessity for timely delivery, Interactive Data can help clients meet these challenges by offering
intraday delivery every hour throughout the trading day. Clients are able to benefit from a timely source of mission critical
information, covering all corporate action event types for equities and fixed-income securities for the global markets.
