The reference data will be available through Linedata Services' Accredited Data Vendor Partner Programme for Icon, the complete back-office fund management and administration solution.
The Accredited Data Vendor Partner Programme provides jointly developed, seamless interfaces to data vendors as proven, out of the box solutions that can be deployed quickly and easily, requiring no additional configuration.
Customers of Icon can already opt to take prices, evaluations, FX rates and indices data from FT Interactive Data's FTS portfolio administration service. The new interface now makes FT Interactive Data's reference data also available.
Paul Westgate, Icon Product Manager for Linedata Services, commented, "We are continuing to work towards providing our customers with a wide choice of data feeds that will meet their specific requirements for market data. By the end of the year we will have full market data interfaces to three of the leading vendors."
This is another successful addition to Linedata Services' Accredited Data Vendor Partner Programme, which is designed to offer existing and future Icon customers a greater choice of data vendors and simple, fast access to multiple data feeds.
