The Closing Prices Service comprises a set of daily exchange price files. Since closing price data is produced around the clock and in large volumes, we process and provide each market closing price file as soon as it becomes available. Consequently individual files are provided for a single market and a single market close date. A rolling 10 day period is available to clients at any given time. A file status browser web page allows clients to check availability at any time of the day.
The Closing Prices Service is divided into three regional time zones as follows –
¤ ASIA/PACIFIC [Estimated Availability in GMT - 08:00 to 16:00]
¤ EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) [Estimated Availability in GMT - 16:00 to 00:00]
¤ AMERICAS [Estimated Availability in GMT - 00:00 to 08:00]
Pricing is available by Exchange or by Continent.
