Data Explorers has announced that its securities lending data, tracking short selling and institutional fund activity, is available to its subscribers over Capital IQ, a Standard & Poor's (S&P) business and platform for financial information and analytical tools.

“We are committed to providing the most complete data, research and analytics offering for asset managers so that we can support their evolving investment processes,” says Peter de Boer, executive managing director of S&P Capital IQ. “The addition of Data Explorers content will enable subscriber clients to integrate this unique information into their Capital IQ workflow to quickly monitor market changes and identify new sources of alpha.”

Data Explorers has enhanced its short interest page, for use with Screening, Excel and Charting functionalities, as well as via its Xpressfeed data management solution for sophisticated quantitative research and modeling.

"This data adds a valuable new layer of criteria, especially for the buy side, for generating investment ideas, optimising portfolio positions, managing risks, and finessing deal timing," wrote Data Explorers.

Content is sourced directly from market participants including prime brokers, custodians, asset managers and hedge funds.
