Increased visibility on financial
information to drive enhanced investment opportunities
LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group) and Dun & Bradstreet
(NYSE: DNB), today announced a multi-year strategic collaboration
to broaden access to private market information. The combination of
LSEG’s capital markets data, including deals, private equity, news
and research, with Dun & Bradstreet’s trusted private market
data providing visibility on officers and directors, ownership
insights and financial information for millions of companies
globally, will enable investment and capital market firms to drive
better data-driven financial assessments and decisions.
This strategic relationship also offers the ability to enhance
content discoverability of data areas, including Ownership &
Shareholder Information and Officers and Directors data, as well as
the opportunity to further work together to develop new connected
private market data sets to optimize capital market use cases.
The industry-recognized Dun & Bradstreet D-U-N-S® Number, a
unique nine-digit identifier for over a half billion public and
private companies, will now be available to LSEG Workspace’s large
customer community and therefore increase its reach into the
capital markets as a new and expanding vertical. Using the D-U-N-S
Number as the key to unlock data about a business, LSEG’s Workspace
users will be able to easily search for private company data and
download the data to improve mapping, discoverability and
interoperability of content on global public and private companies.
The D-U-N-S Number provides linkage across business relationships,
employees, and subsidiaries, enabling users of LSEG Workspace to
gain a better view of an enterprise’s corporate structure,
ownership and financial health.
“With growing demand for access to private company data,
specifically financial information, LSEG has been working to expand
our offering,” said Debbie Lawrence, Group Head of D&A Data
Strategy and Management, LSEG. “This strategic relationship will
provide unprecedented access to private company financial data,
enhancing our already strong offering for the banking community and
beyond. It will also support our customers in making informed
decisions with the added flexibility in how they choose to receive
and use the data.”
“The collaboration with LSEG marks a new era in providing
technology-powered transparency to private firm analysis. Together,
we bring the power of our market-leading data assets to help
capital market participants make more informed decisions,
especially across the private markets,” said Brian Filanowski,
General Manager, Finance & Risk Solutions and Capital Markets
at Dun & Bradstreet. “With the exponential growth of private
markets, Dun & Bradstreet plays a critical role providing more
clarity and insights to help investors manage risk and discover new
investment opportunities.”
LSEG is also working with Dun & Bradstreet to develop a new
private market data feed, which is expected to be available for
customers in 2025, as the companies continue to explore additional
use cases and distribution opportunities together.
