LONDON and NEW YORK and OSPREY, Fla., July 31, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- On July 27 the London Stock Exchange confirmed that it was in talks to buy market data and analytics firm Refinitiv for $27b. If an agreement is reached the $2.8b exchange would become an $8.4b exchange/market data giant more than 68% larger than its nearest exchange rival (Intercontinental Exchange) and second only to Bloomberg in market data revenue, according to a detailed industry report published today by Burton-Taylor International Consulting (part of the TP ICAP group).
The analysis shows:
- LSE would leapfrog Intercontinental Exchange, CME Group and Deutsche Boerse to become the top revenue-generating exchange group in the world.
- The LSE Information Services segment would increase from roughly 39% of group revenue to nearly 70%.
- The Refinitiv owned or controlled transaction assets of FX dealing/matching, FxAll and Tradeweb could offer an enticing embellishment to LSE's existing transaction venues.
"A combined London Stock Exchange Group/Refinitiv entity would be a formidable powerhouse competing with global exchange/index providers and with traditional market data vendors," says Douglas B. Taylor, founder & Managing director of Burton-Taylor. "B-T are thrilled to deliver this analytical 'look into the future' at how these two industry giants could change the way investment discovery, analysis and execution takes place."
