SIX, the global financial data and market infrastructure provider has signed a seven-year strategic partnership with Barclays to back the bank’s international growth and steer cost efficiencies.
Through the collaboration, Barclays’ whole business— including investment banking, retail banking, wealth management, and corporate services— will be provided access to the SIX’s suite of financial data products.
Barclays will participate in the product strategy and assist in generating new data and analytical products, and partnering to come up with new customer solutions, as part of the alliance.
It comes during strategic upheaval at Barclays, with the bank slashing £2 billion costs by 2026, and aiming to simplify and focus on its three core businesses.
Barclay’s cost management and strategy will be supported by SIX’s financial information services including real-time market data, wealth management capabilities, regulatory reporting solutions, and cross asset data coverage.
Marion Leslie, head financial information and executive board member at SIX, says: “As banks face immense pressure to curb costs amid an increasingly uncertain economic environment, harnessing the smartest financial data will be essential in protecting margins and laying the foundations for growth.
“This partnership is a testament to the strong foundations of our relationship that has been built on trust, commitment and collaboration.”
Georges Lauchard, global markets and wholesale lending chief operating officer at Barclays, adds: “Accelerating our digital transformation with the help of leading market data vendors like SIX is a central tenet of our expansion strategy, and we are excited to bring innovative new products and services to our global client base over the coming months.”
