ComStock, an Interactive Data (NYSE: IDC) business and a leading provider of real-time global market data and managed solutions, has entered into an agreement with Swiss-based Continental Capital Markets SA (Conticap), a leading broker servicing the emerging central and eastern European capital markets. Conticap will supply ComStock with a range of financial data in the following currencies: New Turkish Lira, Polish Zloty, Hungarian Forint, Russian Rouble, Romanian New Leu and Israeli Shekel. The data will include foreign exchange (in all currencies except Israeli Shekel), interest rates (in all currencies) and fixed income instruments (in Polish Zloty and Hungarian Forint).
The Conticap feed is available via ComStock’s flagship high-speed digital datafeed, PlusFeed, and also via Interactive Data’s GTIS service, which covers global over-the-counter prices contributed by leading market players in the foreign exchange, precious metals, money and fixed income markets.
