Project Manager - Holdings
Bloomberg
Bloomberg runs on data. Our products are fueled by powerful information. We combine data and context to paint the whole picture for our clients, around the clock – from around the world. In Data, we are responsible for delivering this data, news and analytics through innovative technology - quickly and accurately. We apply problem-solving skills to identify innovative workflow efficiencies, and we implement technology solutions to enhance our systems, products and processes.
The Holdings team evaluates ownership of a security and their position changes over time, providing valuable data for market sentiment analysis, proprietary investment decision insights, and risk management considerations. It also provides valuable prospecting information for sell-side brokers. The Ownership team acquires shareholder long / short positions, and transactions data from institutional investors and insiders from hundreds of public sources across the globe. Portfolios acquire positions for Mutual Funds & ETFs. Together, the normalized data aims to show a complete picture of asset ownership.
