Statement On FINRA’s Corporate Bond New Issue Reference Data Proposal, SEC Acting Chairman Elad L. Roisman, Jan. 15, 2021

Date 15/01/2021

A foundational aspect of a fair, orderly, and efficient market is that all market participants have access to the basic reference data necessary to identify, value, and trade available securities and settle effectuated transactions. In many securities markets, the ability to obtain reference data is taken for granted. But, in the corporate bond market, where thousands of new issues come to market each year, many market participants do not have access to such information at the time a new issue begins secondary trading. Market participants that lack access to this data are hindered from timely participation, not only placing them at a competitive disadvantage but also adversely impacting liquidity in the particular bond issue on the first day the bond trades. Clearly, there is a need for basic reference data on new corporate bond issues to be impartially available to all market participants in a timely manner.
