Need an overview of RIXML and how it can benefit sell-side firms, buy-side firms, research distribution vendors, and anyone else involved in investment interactions and the research creation and distribution chain?
Who We Are
RIXML.org is a consortium of buy-side financial services firms, sell-side financial services firms, and vendors who provide products and services for capturing investment interactions and tagging and distributing investment research.
What We Offer
RIXML is a suite of XML standards that enables firms to accurately describe investment research content, interactions, coverage lists, and analyst rosters. Using the RIXML standard enables firms to improve the process of categorizing, aggregating, comparing, sorting, searching, and distributing global financial research, and of accurately describing interactions to facilitate compliance with MiFID II.
RIXML.org Quarterly Meeting Update
June 2020
This week’s virtual quarterly RIXML.org meeting was hosted by Bloomberg. Michael Mayhew of Integrity Research Associates provided us with an informative update on how the current restrictions are affecting conferences, research budgets and payments, the ways in which sell-side firms are adapting their services, and buy-side perceptions regarding sell-side support during this time. A lively Q&A period followed, allowing member firms to discuss these results and ask follow-up questions. Executive Director Jim Ulrich presented the current state of US and EU guidance on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings and explained reasons for increased interest in sustainable finance taxonomies in the marketplace. RIXML’s ESG Working Group has already begun exploring ways in which the RIXML organization could leverage its experience to add value to this emerging area.
