Frequently asked questions

  • Equities are ownership stakes in companies that can be bought and sold by investors, giving them the opportunity to benefit from share price growth and dividends. Equity markets connect companies seeking capital with investors, enabling firms to raise money through share issuance and allowing those shares to be traded between investors on stock exchanges.

  • Investors use equity market data, analytics, news and research to evaluate company performance, identify opportunities, assess risk and make more informed investment decisions. By analysing real-time and historical pricing data, earnings estimates, liquidity trends and market sentiment, they can build strategies, monitor portfolios and respond to changing market conditions.

  • Companies can raise capital through public equity markets by issuing shares to investors through an Initial Public Offering (IPO) or subsequent share offerings, providing funds to support growth, innovation and strategic initiatives. In return, investors receive an ownership stake in the company and the opportunity to benefit from future performance.

  • Financial news and research provide investors with timely insights into companies, industries and market developments, helping them assess opportunities, risks and potential market impacts. By combining trusted news sources, analyst research and market intelligence with pricing and trading data, investors can make more informed equity investment decisions.

  • Equity trading technology supports pre-trade workflows by providing real-time market data, analytics, news and liquidity insights that help traders identify opportunities and develop trading strategies.
