RIXML
Research Information Exchange Markup Language
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?
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.
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 is re-launching our newsletter in order to keep members and interested others informed about the current status of each of our active workstreams, upcoming events, and other RIXML-related news.

The EU has played a leading role in the development of international climate and sustainable development policy, with a commitment to international agreements such as the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (UNCBD), UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Paris Agreement on climate change, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol.
The EU Taxonomy enables capital markets to identify and respond to investment opportunities that contribute to environmental policy. This is important for practical, disclosure-based regulation inform financial decision making and enable market participants to respond to the EU’s goals for financing sustainable growth. To accomplish these goals the EU directive requires establishing a taxonomy on sustainable economic activities, disclosure requirements related to sustainability risks and opportunities.
By leveraging the TEG on Sustainable Finance taxonomy, RIXML.org will evaluate the opportunity to collaborate with sell-side firms to drive an EU Classification schema to create a cohesive strategy. RIXML Executive Director James Ulrich wants to thank Weiyee In for his insight.
