Subscribe to our newsletter

Exchange Data International (EDI), a provider of global security corporate actions, pricing, and reference data services, has expanded its investment funds coverage with the addition of an Irish funds data service. The additional service covers more than 30,000 share class funds from over 200 fund management companies, providing comprehensive reference and corporate actions data.

Tony McCormack, head of global investment funds at EDI, says: “The Irish funds data service is a continuation of EDI’s strategy to cover all tradeable assets in the market. EDI now includes the information required to add Irish funds to firms’ security master files, as well as corporate actions and dividends. Our intention is to cover all investment funds worldwide.”

EDI’s data team collects, analyses, and publishes the data directly from source fund management companies. Working in parallel, a separate in-house team liaises with the fund management companies to ensure dividend and corporate actions data arrive promptly in EDI’s data centre.
