ICE taps KX for real-time analytics on data from ICE Consolidated Feed
“By leveraging KX’s real-time analytics and ability to overlay complex models based on our data, we’re able to offer an enhanced solution for our customers that can match their needs as they manage risk and execute trading strategies.”
Intercontinental Exchange will leverage KX’s platform to provide real-time analytics on data from ICE’s Consolidated Feed and Consolidated History, which aggregates cross-asset content from over 600 global sources, including exchanges and over-the-counter venues.
Used by a range of banks, asset managers, hedge funds, and ISVs, the ICE Consolidated Feed provides a broad range of financial information across equities, derivatives, fixed income, foreign exchange, money markets, commodities, energy, and ETFs. The data from these markets can be provided in a variety of ways, including real-time or delayed, tick-by-tick, or conflated.
The partnership with KX addresses the challenges stemming from the rapidly increasing volume, speed, and complexity of market data. Financial firms have been struggling to manage and extract meaningful insights from their data quickly enough to drive impactful business decisions.
“One of the broadest global data offerings currently available”
Clients will be able to integrate data from ICE’s Consolidated Feed into KX’s analytics platform to run real-time analytics and deploy complex models in order to derive valuable insights from their data, enhancing their decision-making process in real-time, and ultimately, driving their business forward.
ICE and KX pointed to hedge funds and asset managers as clients that can easily benefit from leveraging KX analytics on ICE Consolidated Feed.
Hedge funds can apply algorithmic models on the consolidated data from ICE to optimize their trading strategies in real time based on predictive insights.
Asset managers can train models on market data to predict financial trends and align their portfolios accordingly. This union of data and technology enables more efficient risk management and decision-making.
