6 Reasons to Go with SQX

1: Transparency

A major challenge in the financial data industry is understanding the origin of pricing data. Many big data vendors don’t share how the prices you receive were created, leaving you to blindly trust them. You’ll just have to hope that they aren’t disguising old prices as new ones (as some big data vendors have a history of doing).

With SQX, this worry becomes a thing of the past. We ensure that you’re always in the know. If you’re after our quoted prices (structured notes, alternative investments, and catastrophe bonds), we’ll give you all the info you need, including the data’s source and age. For SQX-evaluated prices (muni bonds, corporate bonds, U.S. treasuries, and global yield curves), we’re always willing to share the relevant details behind the prices you receive, giving you clear insights into the “how” and “why” behind every piece of data.

2: Coverage

When you think of SQX’s coverage, one word comes to mind: comprehensive. In an industry where every asset class has its nuances, it’s essential to cover a wide range of securities. Fortunately, SQX meets this goal in spades, pricing both common and niche asset classes.

For example, SQX offers…

• Roughly 1,000,000 muni bonds
• Both privately- and publicly-issued alternative investments
• Coverage of all global corporate bonds in major indexes
• The most comprehensive broker coverage in the U.S. for structured notes
  

At SQX, we always work to ensure that you have access to the information you need, no matter how specific or specialized.

3: Customization

No two organizations are alike, and neither are their data needs. But whether you represent a hedge fund seeking to gain a competitive edge, a money manager considering the best ways to manage your assets, or a broker looking to establish rates, SQX has got you covered. We offer bespoke services that cater to your individual requirements, whether you need specific pricing data, tailored reports, or custom file delivery formats (SFTP or API). Our flexibility means that you don’t have to settle for one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, you can get the exact data and services that align with your institution’s goals and processes.

4: Value

In a market dominated by big data vendors with equally big price tags, SQX is doing something revolutionary: not charging you an arm and a leg. Our value proposition is simple: deliver top-tier data without the exorbitant costs. Let’s spell it out: “SQX’s data is as good or better than anyone else’s. SQX charges substantially lower prices.” Since we provide high-quality data at a reasonable cost, SQX is not only a smart choice for your data needs but also a cost-effective one.

5: Swift Support

Helpful customer service is like oxygen—you only notice it when it’s not there. At SQX, we pride ourselves on having some of the best customer service in the business. You can always count on getting a response from us within a single business day—most of the time it takes us less than an hour! We’re always friendly, attentive, and respectful. You’ll be taken seriously; your questions will be addressed promptly and professionally. Our goal is to make your processes feel like a breath of fresh air.

6: Licensing

Few things are as needlessly expensive as data redistribution rights. In today’s interconnected world, sharing data within your institution—or even with partners—is often necessary. However, most big data vendors charge you a truly outrageous fee to bring your organization’s data redistribution into the 21st century. At SQX, that’s not how we roll. Our licensing terms are designed to be generous, flexible, and accommodating, ensuring that you can use and share the data you need without facing unnecessary hurdles or exorbitant fees.

A Crucial Choice

Choosing the right financial data vendor is critical to the success of your institution. At SQX, we’re here to provide you with the data you need, how and when you need it, all while delivering exceptional value. When you go with SQX, you’ll experience the difference that a truly customer-focused financial data provider can make.
