360T and DIGITEC Named Best Reference Data Newcomer for their Swaps Data Feed at the IMD and IRD Awards

May 2021

Frankfurt am Main – May 20, 2021  – 360T and DIGITEC have been named as the Best Reference Data Newcomer for their Swaps Data Feed (SDF) product at the Inside Market Data (IMD) and Inside Reference Data (IRD) Awards.

Hosted by Waters Technology, these prestigious awards recognise excellence within market data, reference data and enterprise data management across the entire financial services industry. The award winners were determined by a panel of expert judges who analysed the detailed submissions required for each entry.

The SDF, created in joint partnership between 360T and DIGITEC, is a truly unique product which offers full granularity across the curve from O/N out to five years in over 40 pairs, providing real-time swaps market data in 1,800 crosses in G10, LM and NDF currency pairs.

Despite being a relatively new product for the FX industry, the SDF has seen rapid growth in both the number of firms contributing to the feed and consuming it. As a result, this product has brought transparency to the previously opaque $3.2 trillion per day FX Swaps market, helping buy-side firms to both achieve and prove best execution and sell-side firms to more effectively price trades outside of their core currencies.

Indeed, the SDF has proven so popular that in the last year 360T and DIGITEC launched a new GUI for the product. Previously only available via FIX API or within the 360T ecosystem, now firms are able to consume the SDF as an easy-to-access online service. This has allowed a much broader swathe of the FX market to access high quality, accurate FX Swaps data so that they can have a better understanding of the market on a pre-trade basis at a very low cost.

“We are honoured to have won this award and delighted that our SDF product is receiving the recognition that it deserves. In a marketplace increasingly awash with data we are proud to have developed a differentiated suite of data products which are today delivering tangible and quantifiable benefits to a broad range of FX market participants. This is the second major industry award that 360T has won in the past year for our market data suite, showing that we have real momentum behind this business now, despite being relative newcomers to this space,” says Simon Jones, Chief Growth Officer 360T Group.

Peer Joost, COO at DIGITEC, comments: “It is fantastic to see that our joint 360T and DIGITEC market data product, the SDF, continues to be recognised by the industry. This reflects the product’s relevance in the market data space and has led to record growth in its usage over the last two years. Going forward, 360T and DIGITEC have ambitious plans to continue on this journey and to provide market-leading FX swaps market data to an even broader spectrum of clients.”
