Why the first job is to split the question
Almost every brief that names Bloomberg is really three different requests, and each has a different honest answer.
The first is market data: prices, fundamentals, reference data. We collect it from the primary publications of exchanges, regulators and central banks, which are the original source anyway, and record the source on every row.
The second is instrument identification: matching securities across a client's systems. We deliver the financial instrument identifier with its ticker, exchange code, security type and market sector, mapped against the instruments you hold.
The third is news: what Bloomberg reported and when, and which of its stories other outlets cited and followed.
Splitting the brief almost always produces a better dataset than a single crawl would, with each part collected from the source that answers it.
