Multi-year partnership aims to deliver AI-ready insights, faster analysis, and smarter decision-making for clients worldwide
In a major move that highlights the growing importance of data analytics in finance, London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) and Bank of America have announced a multi-year strategic partnership designed to transform how clients access and use financial data.
The agreement will integrate LSEG’s advanced data, analytics, and workflow tools across Bank of America’s platforms. The goal is simple but powerful: make it easier for clients to access trusted information, analyze markets faster, and make better decisions with confidence.
As financial markets become more complex, access to reliable and well-governed data is critical. Through this partnership, Bank of America will gain streamlined access to LSEG’s high-quality, rights-cleared content, including AI-ready datasets that can accelerate analysis and generate deeper insights. LSEG Workspace, along with APIs and enterprise tools, will be embedded across key business areas, from advisory services and trading to risk management and regulatory compliance.
“Trusted, high quality data is essential to how we support clients and manage risk,” said Fernando Vicario, CEO of Merrill Lynch International and UK Country Executive at Bank of America. He added that integrating LSEG’s capabilities will enable faster insights and a more seamless client experience.
The collaboration also includes LSEG’s World-Check risk intelligence data, strengthening compliance and screening processes across global markets. At its core, this partnership reflects a broader shift in banking: data analytics is no longer just support infrastructure, it is becoming the engine that drives smarter strategy, stronger governance, and better client outcomes.
