SmartStream's RDU is not a new project by any means, but it is making waves across the capital markets in terms of offering buy-side and sell-side firms with a viable alternative to managing large volumes of reference data in-house, while also helping them to reduce costs by way of technology and head count.

Issues covered in this interview include:

  • The 'utilitization' of the industry and why so many firms are showing interest in utilities 
  • The premise behind the establishment of the RDU and what it seeks to achieve 
  • How capital markets participants can benefit by their involvement in the RDU
  • The types of capital markets firms that stand to benefit through the use of the RDU
