"As the Symphony network expands, we believe it will become a critical part of the fabric of the financial industry and view it as highly complementary to the spectrum of services provided by Markit. The service offers us innovative ways to collaborate, distribute data and deploy technology apps, such as advanced charting," said Brad Levy, Markit's head of processing and loans and CEO of MarkitSERV, in a statement. "We also plan to weave Symphony into our platforms and products to enable real-time collaboration among our customers. In addition, it's exciting for us to contribute open-source code to the Symphony Foundation and develop new ways to access data and improve workflow in partnership with the industry."
