Ultumus, a provider of ETF and index data, has announced a partnership with BMLL, an independent provider of harmonised, historical Level 3, 2, and 1 data and analytics, across global equity, ETFs, futures and US equity options.
According to the firm, the combination of Ultumus’ analytics and BMLL’s data strengthens the offering for the global ETF community by combining Ultumus' reference and index data with BMLL’s historical market data and analytics within its scalable data platforms.
At the same time, BMLL’s customer base, which includes banks, brokers, asset managers, hedge funds, global exchange groups, academic institutions, and regulators, is now able to access Ultumus ETF reference data and ETF issuer-published metrics.
Ultumus ETF data is available within BMLL’s scalable Python research sandbox, BMLL Data Lab, and its market microstructure visualisation platform, BMLL Vantage, before market open, every day, for each region.
Bernie Thurston, CEO at Ultumus, says: “At Ultumus, our focus is on delivering measurable value through data innovation. By utilising BMLL’s granular Level 3 data and analytics, we’re able to quantify how accurate, timely fund data improves trading outcomes and market efficiency for clients using Ultumus’ Portfolio Composition File service.”
Paul Humphrey, CEO at BMLL, adds: “Adding ETF data from Ultumus is part of BMLL’s ongoing strategy to broaden our content and data coverage globally, which already includes historical market data from over 100 trading venues and our equities offering covering 100 per cent of the MSCI World Index.”
