FactEntry (FE), a provider of fixed income data, has announced today that FactEntry Credit Corporate Actions App is available via App Studio on Thomson Reuters Eikon.

The FactEntry Credit Corporate Actions App is a powerful announcement monitoring tool, with a special focus on events impacting Fixed Income/CDS entities and instruments. All Thomson Reuters Eikon users are able to access the App.

Thomson Reuters Eikon is a robust, next-generation platform that provides real-time and historical data, news and analytics, and a range of other solutions that connect the financial markets community worldwide. FactEntry App complements Thomson Reuters industry-leading fixed income offering and brings additional credit corporate event data to the investors, asset managers and other institutional clients who utilize Thomson Reuters Eikon. Some announcements such as bond covenant amendments are not always readily apparent within public disclosures. The FactEntry app tracks and highlights these events and ensures that they are linked to the correct legal entity and ISIN.

“FactEntry's partnership with Thomson Reuters enables us to make our brand and content more visible in the market place. We are confident that both FactEntry and Thomson Reuters will benefit from the partnership as we want our users to see FactEntry as a reference in the credit corporate actions domain,” said Sandeep Dhingra, Director at FactEntry. “As an agile company, FactEntry is able to take on clients’ feedback and quickly convert them into new capabilities. Our goal is to be first in class in the fixed income credit corporate actions area.”

“The addition of FactEntry on Eikon further enhances our buy side product solutions offering, providing an enhanced workflow solution and greater insight into complex financial instruments, both through an open platform,” said Michael Chin, managing director, global head of trading, Thomson Reuters.
