IHS Markit (Nasdaq: INFO), a world leader in critical information, analytics and solutions, today announced the signing of an alliance agreement under which its bond pricing data service will be used as a key input into Bondevalue’s mobile application. Bondevalue is a digital platform that allows accredited investors access to live Asian bond pricing data, news and analytics.

“There is a lack of transparency in fixed income markets for high net worth investors to gauge opportunities and risks,” said Rahul Banerjee, founder and CEO, Bondevalue. “We saw a gap in the market for a reliable and intuitive Asian bond platform that delivered prices in a timely manner via a mobile app. More importantly, we aim to provide consistent, dependable market data to aid investors in making critical investment decisions. The bond pricing dataset from IHS Markit is highly regarded in the marketplace and was a natural choice for us.”

“As a leader in Singapore’s vibrant fintech sector, we are excited to be part of the growth story of promising companies like Bondevalue,” said Sage Patel, director of fixed income pricing at IHS Markit. “Having our bond pricing data powering Bondevalue’s mobile app demonstrates how technology makes it possible to create more transparency in fixed income markets for a broad set of investors in real time.”

The platform is accessible online and via apps on mobile devices. It was first introduced to the market via the FinTech Conference 2016 Exhibition program at the MAS-ABS Singapore FinTech Festival 2016.
