Established in 2012, MayStreet offers market data infrastructure platform that aims to meet the capital markets data needs of firms with real-time and “near-time” intraday historical data.

Its clientele includes quantitative investment firms, traditional asset managers, trading platform vendors, regulators, and banks.

MayStreet CEO and co-founder Patrick Flannery said: “For firms across our industry –banks, quantitative investment firms, traditional asset managers, trading system vendors, etc. – the race is on to figure out how to most effectively extract value out of the ocean of market data that gets created each day.

“From our standpoint, this is an incredibly exciting problem to solve, which is why we’ve worked so hard these past eight years to develop, in conjunction with some of the world’s most demanding users of market data, a sophisticated platform to do just that.”

NEXT Investors was recently in the news for its acquisition of the product suite and technology consulting practice of NorthPoint, which offers financial software to investment managers.
