Ballintrae’s Exchange Rules and Regulations Database (B.E.R.R.D.)
What you can and can’t do with Exchange pricing data has always been complex but it is fast becoming a minefield. Cumbersome language, rules that lack clarity and change often without notification are just part of the problem. And, as the exchanges are more frequently targeting financial services organisations to ensure they are accurately reporting usage, market data experts are often finding out that their interpretation is is not correct. The process that follows can be hugely time-consuming and expensive, often involving lawyers and more often than not resulting in hefty penalties and reputational damage.
Ballintrae’s new and unique online database, Ballintrae Exchange Rules and Regulation Database, which is completely independent of the exchanges, has been created to help the industry’s ongoing information and reporting needs. It blows away the minefield and introduces clarity and protection for organisations. Our aim is to create a single source of reference for all Exchange policies to bring transparency to the market. The database contains everything an organisation needs to receiving, downloading, manipulating and/or distributing information from the exchanges.
