How We're Disrupting/Improving the Market Data Industry Finazon is set to disrupt the financial data sector, an industry traditionally dominated by a handful of giants that offer high-priced, monolithic data packages. Unlike these incumbent providers, Finazon empowers its customers by providing highly customizable data packages that fit their needs and budgets. We believe financial data should be democratized and accessible to all - from individual investors to small fintech startups to established financial institutions. Our innovative marketplace platform breaks down the barriers to global financial data access. Our platform lets users select from a vast range of datasets, cherry-picking the specific information they require. This eliminates the need for users to pay for unnecessary data, making financial data access more affordable and efficient. Standing Out from The Crowd Long-term vision, data accuracy, transparency, customization. Our Predictions/Thoughts on the Market Data Industry in 2023 On the horizon, we see blockchain and decentralized finance playing a more significant role in the industry. These technologies have the potential to redefine how financial data is stored, shared, and accessed. As such, we anticipate a growing demand for data that offers insights into these burgeoning areas of the financial industry. The rise of AI worldwide is creating a surge in demand for high-quality, diverse financial data. Financial data plays a critical role in training AI algorithms, which are increasingly used for predicting market trends, optimizing trading strategies, and financial advising. As these technologies become more sophisticated and integral to financial operations, the need for comprehensive, accurate, and timely financial data sets will only grow. In this era of AI-driven finance, data providers like Finazon are not just delivering information but fueling innovation, reshaping the economic landscape. What word defines the state of Market Data in 2023? Stagnating, obsolete, bureaucratic.
