IEX Turbocharges Market Data Operations with DataBP Partnership

Wall Street's quiet disruptor just got louder.

IEX—the exchange that famously flipped off high-frequency traders with its 'speed bump'—is now streamlining its market data business through a partnership with DataBP. Because nothing says 'efficiency' like outsourcing your data headaches.

Cutting Through the Red Tape

The deal lets IEX bypass legacy infrastructure and automate licensing workflows. No more manual processes, no more spreadsheets—just clean API-driven distribution. Finally, market data that moves as fast as their famous 350-microsecond delay.

The Ironic Twist

An exchange built to slow down trading is now speeding up data delivery. Maybe next they'll help hedge funds read terms of service before clicking 'accept.'

DataBP, the industry leader in exchange market data administration, has partnered with the Investors’ Exchange (“IEX”) to enable more streamlined management of its commercial market data operations.

IEX has implemented DataBP’s cutting-edge market data management platform, which automates and simplifies licensing, reporting, and compliance workflows. This allows IEX to focus more on innovation while promoting seamless and efficient interactions with its data subscribers and partners.

Through its use of DataBP’s solution, IEX is further streamlining the administration of market data licensing, compliance, and reporting. This collaboration is expected to improve efficiency, reduce friction in the licensing process, and provide an improved experience for market participants accessing IEX data.

“Our collaboration with DataBP allows us to streamline key operational processes, so we can focus on delivering innovative solutions and value to the trading community,” said Bryan Harkins, President of IEX Group. “We are excited to work with a company that shares our commitment to efficiency, transparency, and service.”
