Fitch Solutions Named Best Counterparty Data Provider by Waters Technology

Fitch Solutions has been named “Best Counterparty Data Provider” at
Waters Technology’s annual Inside Market Data/Inside Reference Data
Awards. Presented yesterday in New York, the awards recognize industry
excellence within market data, reference data and enterprise data
management.

“Fitch Solutions is grateful to be recognized for the quality of our
counterparty data and the investments we’ve made in technology to help
clients get the most out of it,” says Paul Whitmore, Head of
Counterparty Credit Risk. “This award demonstrates our commitment to
understanding our clients’ needs and providing solutions that improve
their workflow.”

Fitch Solutions’ Counterparty Risk Solution catalogues nearly 50,000
public and private institutions globally, with up to 30 years of
historical records—the longest running database in the market. Coverage
is particularly strong in Europe and emerging markets. When combined
with new features on the Fitch Connect platform, Fitch Solutions offers
some of the most robust tools available today for portfolio-level
monitoring and analyzing unrated parts of the market.

“What sets Fitch Solutions apart from the competition is how the
combination of high quality data and a next-generation platform provide
clients with the context and insight necessary to make better credit
decisions,” says Whitmore.

This award adds to a handful of accolades Fitch Solutions has received
recently from Waters Technology. In the past year, Fitch Solutions was
presented with the award for ‘Best Research Provider’ at the 2018 Inside
Market Data/Inside Reference Data awards, and the ‘Best use of the Agile
Method’ award at the American Financial Technology Awards.
