Neptune data coverage:
Composite:
Real-time pricing feed showing the composite pre-trade pricing activity across liquid bonds. It will have rules that state that there needs a minimum of 3 dealers providing prices on a given bond. The composite will apply smoothing methodology to weight new inputs based on their proximity to previous inputs. Benchmark spreads are not included in the calculations but are targeted for 2023.
Neptune is the only provider that can use Dealer Axe data in composite pricing.
Liquidity Scores:
Ranking of bonds by relative liquidity over recent history, scoring them from 1-10 across a variety of attributes. Bid and offer values will be available separately, and scoring will be market-specific (IG, HY, etc.).
Sentiment Analysis:
Using the axe data on a bond as a proxy for dealer’s interest, Neptune is developing a measure of sentiment aggregated at the issuer/sector/duration level. Naturally forward looking in contrast to LS, which is historical.
