CheckFree Corporation now supports the London Stock Exchange’s ISO 15022 corporate actions data feed with its new automation and workflow solution for corporate actions processing.
The LSE offers an ISO 15022-compliant service to deliver corporate actions and dividend data from UK-based corporations to end users in near real-time over the SWIFT network, using the MT564 corporate actions notification messages. The exchange is the first stock exchange to supply centrally sourced corporate actions data through an industry-standard interface via SWIFT.
“We have invested in technologies to support ISO 15022 messages using functionality contained within our award winning SEDOL Masterfile(tm) database,” said Mark Husler, head of reference data at the LSE. “With the support of connectivity and workflow technology providers, such as CheckFree eVent, our customers can now receive, validate and process all of their corporate actions data.”
