According to FT Interactive its Accredited Data Vendor Partner Program provides jointly developed, seamless interfaces to data vendors that can be deployed quickly and easily, requiring no additional configuration.

Customers of Icon can already opt to take prices, evaluations, FX rates and indices data from FT Interactive’s FTS portfolio administration service. The new interface now makes FT Interactive Data’s reference data also available.

Paul Westgate, Icon product manager for Linedata Services, said, We are continuing to work towards providing our customers with a wide choice of data feeds that will meet their specific requirements for market data. By the end of the year we will have full market data interfaces to three of the leading vendors.
