Benchmarking for Issuers of Derivatives

IS.Statistics Derivatives by IS.Teledata offers detailed market analysis

FRANKFURT - Issuers of derivatives can now measure the success of their products in the market place day by day, using a web-based application. IS.Teledata offers its solution IS.Statistics Derivatives which supplies market statistics for warrants and certificates. Issuers using IS.Statistics Derivatives can analyse derivative trading at exchanges and for some OTC markets as well. Analysis is available by market, issuer, product type and underlying. The application currently covers 60,000 retail derivatives by 45 issuers traded at eight exchanges throughout Germany for 1,300 underlyings. Issuers thus receive basic information to optimise their product strategies and marketing activities to increase their competitiveness. With IS.Statistics Derivatives, IS.Teledata, Europe’s largest provider and operator of customised financial market information systems, offers access to the relevant data in an easy-to-use application.

Evaluating comprehensive data in detail

The solution provides individually defined queries and detailed analyses. Users can thus research product sales for any time period and by different criteria. Gauging a competitor’s success, determining which underlying recorded the most derivative sales or ranking sales structured product types by exchange – IS.Statistics Derivatives offers accurate answers. Trading data can be aggregated by number of transactions, sales, newly issued instruments, expired derivatives and total number of instruments. Product categories follow the common German Euwax standard, but users will be able to apply individual categories as well. The results are available in the web application or for export to a spreadsheet. Recurring analyses can be pre-configured for easy execution.

IS.Statistics Derivatives currently covers sales and transactions from market statistics since the beginning of 2005. Issuers thus receive indicative evaluations from the start while the available data continues to grow. In the future, IS.Statistics Derivatives will also cover market data of other European markets.
