Astana Financial Services Authority (AFSA) and Refinitiv will collaborate to provide Participants of the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC) with the relevant access to full spectrum of financial market data and tools via Refinitiv’s flagship Eikon analytical software.

Cooperation arrangement will allow AIFC Participants for (1) access flexible conditions for EIKON platform subscription from Refinitiv* and (2) participation in the events, trainings and experience sharing in the realm of global financial markets.

The platform allows the user to perform a full pre-trade screening and top-down analysis via flexible instrument screeners, the most comprehensive macroeconomic database with historical time series and forecasted data, industry and company research reports, detailed company fundamentals information, among a myriad of other functions, as well as monitor their portfolios in real time and do a thorough post-trade analysis via interactive portfolio analytics reports. The platform also aggregates unique content across ESG (Environmental responsibility, Social impact and Corporate governance), project finance, deals (including private equity) and collective investments. Users can access the data via an intuitive user interface in Eikon and/or integrate the data with other applications via an easy to use API (application programming interface) for a more programmatic approach.
