EFAMA & EFSA joint letter on FCA wholesale market data study
The FCA’s recent report on the wholesale data market is an important and high-quality study which echoes many long-standing buy-side concerns.

Much of this data is indispensable for users to stay in business and fulfil regulatory obligations.
