As commercial bond markets fluctuate, FactSet expands its fixed income capabilities, adding more real-time pricing insights with integration of MarketAxess’ award-winning CP+ data
FactSet, a global financial digital platform and enterprise solutions provider, announced availability of MarketAxess’ AI-powered CP+ data within the FactSet Workstation platform, making FactSet the only provider offering CP+ data directly within a terminal desktop environment.
“Recent fluctuations in the commercial bond market are illustrative of the value of real-time, intra-day pricing data. This integration isn’t just about expanding exclusive data access within FactSet’s desktop terminal—it’s about delivering a new standard of fixed income insights that transform how institutional investors engage with markets,” said John Costigan, Chief Data Officer at FactSet. “Through FactSet’s unique collaboration with MarketAxess and the integration of their CP+ fixed income pricing data directly into our Workstation and Real Time Data Feeds, we’re giving front-office and back-office teams the power to make sharper, data-backed decisions, respond faster to market changes, and uncover opportunities they can act upon.”
Through this first-ever on-platform integration, FactSet users—including asset managers, hedge funds, wealth advisors, and institutional traders—gain exclusive in-terminal access to AI-powered bond pricing from MarketAxess’ trading activity, providing a real-time reflection of the market. Centralizing these capabilities into FactSet’s consolidated platform eliminates the inefficiencies of fragmented liquidity, replaces opaque pricing structures, and enhances trade execution through modernized workflows.
