Ahead of the Curve: SQX Q3 2024 Review
Crisp autumn air is blowing, leaves are falling, and SQX has been hard at work. As we move into the fall, let’s take a look at what we’ve accomplished in Q3.
Over 100,000 Structured Notes Priced
While SQX is constantly expanding our universe of structured notes, we just reached a very important milestone. As of Q3, SQX now officially prices over 100,000 structured notes! Though our structured note coverage was already the largest in the US, we’re very excited to reach this milestone.
In Q3, we also partnered with a new broker! This new addition to our coverage expands our global network of domestic and foreign dealers, providing SQX with more pricing data to aggregate. This data is then parsed and formatted into a consolidated file, which we deliver to our structured note clients on an intraday basis.
SQX Alts now features SEC Announcements
SQX Alts—our new platform for alternative investments news and information—just introduced a whole new way to view SEC filings. In Q3, we created a page that gathers the most recent SEC filings from major alts issuers and sponsors, compiling them into a single easy-to-read list of announcements. If a particular filing interests you, each individual listing includes a link to the document itself.
Also in Q3, we’ve dramatically filled out the SQX Alts database, providing a broader list of alts sponsors and issuers. These updates are a significant step towards making SQX Alts the go-to resource for the alts world.
Refined our Alts Pricing Process
In Q3, we’ve made our alternative investment pricing process more streamlined than ever before. We’ve expanded validation procedures for our alts pricing, ensuring that our data entry process is efficient and consistent.
SQX offers pricing for the full universe of alternative investments—including privately-issued securities. We provide issuer-quoted data in a single daily-delivered file. Thanks to our recent updates, our alts pricing efficiency is at an all-time high.
New Product Spotlight: Muni Curves
- We’ve officially re-launched our muni curves in Q3, courtesy of our sister company MBIS, Municipal Bond Information Services!
- Our data includes the Muni Benchmark Curve, Investment Grade Credit Curves, and Insured Spread Curves.
- SQX muni curves incorporate data from market activity, ensuring that our model accurately reflects all of the available information.
- In addition, these muni curves help SQX price municipal bonds more accurately than ever before.
