MDMS Launches MarketDataStaffing.com to Address Growing Talent Gap in Financial Market Data Roles

New York, NY – February 23, 2026 — Market Data Management Solutions Corp. (MDMS), a leading advisory firm specializing in market data governance and cost optimization, announced the launch of MarketDataStaffing.com, a boutique staffing firm dedicated exclusively to market data roles within the financial services industry.

MarketDataStaffing.com was created to address a growing gap in the market: financial institutions increasingly require specialized market data expertise, yet traditional staffing firms lack the domain knowledge needed to accurately evaluate and place talent in this specialized discipline.

The new firm, a division of MDMS Recruiting LLC, focuses on placing experienced professionals across market data administration, operations, and technical roles. These roles have become increasingly critical as financial institutions face rising complexity from exchanges, data vendors, internal technology initiatives, and regulatory scrutiny.

Exegy Announces First-ever Overnight BBO Feed for After-hours Trading Venues

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

New York, St. Louis – February 4, 2026 – Exegy, a leading provider of market data, trading technology, and managed services for the capital markets, today announces that it will uniquely offer the first-ever overnight consolidated feed, comprising of all three after hours Alternative Trading Systems (ATS). This will allow clients to easily perform best price discovery, filling a structural gap in overnight markets. Axiom will also offer market data access to these ATSs with connectivity currently in development and is expected to be delivered in Q1.

 

The connection to Bruce ATS™, Blue Ocean ATS and MOON ATS will enable market participants to capture liquidity unavailable on traditional exchange feeds during after-hours markets. The Overnight Best Bid and Offer (OBBO) consolidated feed provided by Exegy, similar to a Securities Information Processor (SIP), will provide real-time information on the best price for a specific security instrument, eliminating the need for clients to calculate it themselves.

 

Arnaud Derasse, CTO of Exegy, said: “As participants continue operating across time zones, we are seeing major interest towards extended or after-hours trading venues. The addition of these three ATSs, along with the Exegy live calculated OBBO, will enrich the consolidated market data our clients have access to via Axiom, providing them with a more complete market view with simplified overnight best price discovery.”

 

As the market evolves from extended trading hours towards 24/5, the initiative to cover overnight ATSs ensures institutional investors’ infrastructure is equipped to take advantage of shifting liquidity in US equities. Exegy’s data-as-a-service solution, Axiom, currently offers connectivity to Blue Ocean ATS, by Blue Ocean Technologies. Bruce ATS™, which utilizes Nasdaq technology, and MOON ATS offered by OTC Markets will become available as Q1 progresses.

 

“As trading moves toward a true 24/5 market, access to overnight liquidity is essential,” said Matt Fuchs, EVP, Market Data at OTC Markets Group. “With almost 15 years of building and operating ATSs, we’re thrilled to bring MOON ATS market data to Exegy’s Axiom, giving investors the tools to capture opportunities across US equities anytime, anywhere.”

 

All three overnight venues will be available through Axiom via Exegy’s New York Point of Presence, with Top-of-Book (L1) or Depth-of-Book (L2) options. The OBBO service will be offered as a separate, standalone feed offering based on each of the three venues’ Top-of-Book feeds (L1).

Expanding coverage to include overnight ATS venues in Exegy’s global market data offering is one of several ways Exegy continues to support its growth strategy and reinforce its commitment to proactively address market shifts and evolving client needs. Further expanding the offered coverage, in Q4 2025, Axiom integrated real-time, low-latency Canadian equity data via the TMX Information Processor (TMX IP), a TMX Datalinx product.

New FISD Event Attendance Policy

FISD wants to ensure that our members get maximum value from FISD events. To that end, we will be implementing a new attendance policy following a directive from the FISD Executive Committee to ensure fairness and improve access to our events for all members. When delegates register for an event but fail to attend without canceling their registration, it limits opportunities for others who are eager to attend. Repeated no-shows without cancellation will count against your attendance record and may limit your ability to attend future FISD events.

We are closely tracking attendance and no-shows for events. Beginning in 2026, if a member has accumulated 3 or more no-shows during the preceding 12 months, they will be provisionally blocked from registering for future events. If you are aware that you cannot make an FISD event after registering, to avoid being blocked from future events, we ask you to please inform us of your cancellation as soon as possible. We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to making our events successful and inclusive. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
