What is Securities Reference Data?

Securities reference data is information about both listed and unlisted securities which are traded across the global financial markets. These securities include ETFs, mutual funds, warrants, and certificates. Securities reference data allows investors to target the stocks belonging to industries they’re interested in, identify opportunities for alpha generation, and manage risk when trading different securities.
