Out of the millions of securities that exist, most are thinly traded and difficult to price. Historically, subjective broker quotes were sufficient to demonstrate liquidity, and justify valuation. Today's market participants and firms understand the need for rigor and transparency when establishing fair and independent asset valuations, assessing liquidity and meeting heightened regulatory requirements.

When front, middle and back office functions all work with the same information, the entire enterprise benefits. Bloomberg's Enterprise Risk & Valuation services deliver that consistency! From our high-quality evaluated pricing data for fixed income and derivatives (BVAL), to innovative predictive analytics and liquidity management solutions (LQA), Bloomberg demonstrates a commitment to partnering with our clients.

Traders have the familiarity of terminal functionality. Risk committees will appreciate Bloomberg's ability to help identify, measure, and manage uncertainty particularly during volatile conditions. Accounting teams can expect defensible pricing with insight into the market data inputs used. And senior executives will obtain a greater sense of control over their risk through the transparency Bloomberg solutions provide.
