Bloomberg has expanded its intraday valuation (IBVAL) front office service to cover emerging market (EM) bonds on a 22/5 basis.
Launched in 2023, IBVAL provides real-time pricing for USD credit securities and all EUR and GBP investment grade and high yield credit bonds. More than 95% of EM USD corporate and sovereign bonds are covered by the service, with this latest expansion integrating a further 6,000 bonds issued across global emerging markets.
Eric Isenberg, head of enterprise data pricing at Bloomberg, commented: “As global traders evaluate opportunities to unlock alpha and improve execution in international fixed income markets, there is increasing demand for more real-time pricing insights to add greater transparency to their trading workflows.
“These expansions bring IBVAL’s pricing insights to some of the most liquid international bond markets, giving both buy side and sell side traders across time zones more confidence in their trading decisions and execution outcomes.”
