DIH provides market data and independent security prices to OTC market participants who wish to increase the efficiency and lower the cost of their valuation, portfolio analytics, best execution reporting, risk management and fund accounting operations. Now more than ever, there is an increased need for reliable sources of price verification, and DIH is proud to provide an institutional-quality OTC data solution.
FIXED INCOME PRICES — We provide independent prices on a wide range of fixed income securities, including:
Valuations are calculated daily at the close of major markets. For more liquid bonds, intraday valuations may be available. Valuations can be delivered on a same-day or next-day basis.
Corporate Bonds & Municipal Bonds: DIH provides corporate bond investors with daily prices on nearly 100,000 global investment grade and high yield securities. These calculations use observable pricing information from the market and proprietary yield curve fitting analytics. Obtaining quality prices in the municipal bond market has long been difficult given the small percentage of the market that actively trades. DIH uses both traded prices and indicative prices quoted in the marketplace to evaluate prices on municipal bonds from the USA and select other regions.
Syndicated Bank Loans: The syndicated bank loan market has become very active in recent years. Using a proprietary parsing technology, observable prices are captured on global investment grade and high yield loans. These data points are used to calculate composite prices on ~4,000 loans. New issues and refinancings are updated daily.
Agency MBS & Non-Agency CMO: DIH provides prices on a comprehensive set of agency Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) and non-agency Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMO).
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS): We provide month-end prices on ~15,000 commercial mortgage-backed securities.
