EquiLend, a global technology, data and analytics company for the securities finance industry, has launched Orbisa securities lending data on the Bloomberg App Portal.
Nancy Allen, Global Head of Data & Analytics Solutions at EquiLend, said: “We are delighted to work with Bloomberg to provide our unique securities lending data and analytics to an even broader global community of market participants who use the Bloomberg Terminal.”
“Subscribers will be able to make more informed investment decisions with unprecedented insight into the securities lending market with Orbisa real-time data.”
Orbisa has a dataset comprising $32 trillion of global lendable equity and fixed income securities.
Bloomberg Terminal users can now subscribe to the Orbisa app to have a view into all active securities lending markets worldwide, covering a range of securities lending metrics across more than 196,000+ individual securities.
The addition of the Orbisa app to the Bloomberg App Portal offers simplified access for buy- and sell-side market participants to real-time data on the $2 trillion global securities lending market.
Metrics available include financing rates, borrow demand, short interest indicator, availability, liquidity and “hotness” measurements and dozens more securities lending metrics that provide insights into the securities that make up institutional investors’ portfolios.
Fewer than 100 third-party applications have been hand-selected for availability on the Bloomberg App Portal, which involves a robust evaluation process.
