“The collaboration between Finastra and S&P Global Market Intelligence brings clear synergies given our complementary solutions, highly overlapping sellside customer base, and extensive reach by S&P Global Market Intelligence into the buyside and their service providers. Together we can bring both sides of the corporate and syndicated lending market together for the mutual benefit of all parties,” said Robert Downs, Global Head of Corporate and Syndicated Lending, Finastra. “We’re addressing a gap in the ecosystem by facilitating end-to-end interoperability and greatly simplifying the loan lifecycle for common clients.”
The parties intend to use their combined capabilities to transform data flows across the board, such as real-time updates for positions, trades, secure wire details, and other areas of the loan lifecycle that can still result in transaction data otherwise being transmitted via fax or email.
