Monday May 9, 2016 is the new date from when Nasdaq will calculate Nordic Fixed Income indexes in Global Index Calculator.
- Global Index Calculator (GIC) is represented as a source in Genium Consolidated Feed (GCF). Index weights reports will move from File Delivery Service (FDS) to premium FTP service GIFFD; and will also continue to be available in Global Index Watch (GIW). Customers receiving index values from GCF will continue to receive the same data. Test data will be available in GIW from April 11, 2016 and in GCF from April 18, 2016.
Effective May 9, 2016, Nasdaq will start to calculate Fixed Income indexes Global Index Calculator powered by the Nasdaq INET® technology — the world's fastest trading system technology.
In Genium Consolidated Feed (GCF), the indexes will be connected to the GIC source that replaces the current ICS_FI source. ICS sources not affected by this migration project will continue to be available in GCF.
Consequently, reports for the affected indexes will no longer be available in File Delivery Service (FDS) as of May 9, 2016. Customers may access index weights reports today via the Global Index Watch web service and index GIFFD FTP service.
