· ABOUT the Security Reference Data Project
o The FINOS Securities Reference Data Working Group is working on how to practically and incrementally address the challenges posed by having multiple and disparate sources of trade identifiers. As a first step, the group is looking at how to leverage existing initiatives and/or open source symbology to map entity/issuer static records across vendor feeds. They are looking for additional participants to provide input and help drive the discussion and solution forward. Read about the working group, roadmap and how to get involved; check out the FINOS program community calendar to join the next meeting; or email the group for more information.
Regards,
Sailesh Pandey
