Introduction

The financial data industry continues to evolve toward more flexible, cost-effective, and workflow-driven solutions. Firms are moving away from rigid, expensive legacy providers and toward platforms that deliver on three critical needs: comprehensive content, customizable workflows, and frictionless onboarding.

The QX Digital Platform is at the forefront of this shift. Recent innovations strengthen its position as the industry’s most user-centric solution, offering broader data access, more workflow flexibility, and the lowest total cost of ownership.

Recent Enhancements and Innovation

1. Content Expansion

QX Digital has significantly broadened its coverage, enabling clients to access richer datasets for valuation, analysis, and reporting. Key additions include:

• Enhanced fixed income analytics, including expanded coverage of SBA loans.
• ETF descriptive data, delivering deeper transparency into performance and allocations.
• Strengthened enrichment of reference data, ensuring accuracy across securities, benchmarks, and structured products.

These enhancements help clients address more use cases within a single platform, reducing the need for multiple data providers.

2. Workflow Flexibility & Automation

The core differentiator of QX Digital is its ability to mirror client workflows and reduce operational friction. Recent innovations include:

• Named Universes: Clients can now pull data across full, defined, or securities of interest driven universes, empowering them with greater access and control over how data is organized and delivered.
• Flexible pricing and delivery models: Ensure clients consume only what they need, in the format that best supports their workflows.
• QX Automate investments: Continued development of the QX Automate module highlights QUODD’s commitment to expanding self-service workflow automation, building on existing automation, customization, and scheduling capabilities
• Expansion of interfaces to the data catalog: The QX Digital Platform is extending support for native integrations with key financial systems and storage services, embedding these connections directly into its data library to simplify client integration and accelerate adoption.

For clients, the benefits are tangible. Migration timelines that once took months can now be cut to weeks or even days, thanks to QX Digital’s file adapter technology. Personalized workflows allow clients to define the delivery mechanisms and formats that best fit their operations, eliminating the need for costly engineering support. By embedding automation into asset setup, price verification, tolerance checks, and security master maintenance, QX Digital transforms critical processes into seamless, scalable workflows.

3. Onboarding & Transition

QUODD is committed to making onboarding and data transitions as seamless as possible. Recent advancements focus on reducing friction and accelerating time to value:

• Adapter technology allows QX Digital to customize data feeds and formats to align with existing client systems, significantly reducing the engineering lift required to transition from legacy providers.
• AI-powered mapping streamlines format alignment, taking client-supplied data and mapping it to QX Digital’s universe with minimal effort. This reduces onboarding friction and moves the industry closer to “zero-friction” transitions.

By simplifying conversion and leveraging AI, QX Digital minimizes disruption and accelerates time-to-value for clients.

Conclusion

Modern institutions now demand flexible, API-first, cloud-native solutions that integrate seamlessly into daily workflows. They want self-service access to data, delivery models that adapt to their processes, and the ability to automate manual tasks at scale. This shift represents not only a technological need but also a strategic imperative for firms aiming to remain competitive in a complex and fast-moving market.
