Lagos (INVESTADVOCATE)-The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) Monday said it will charge about $5,000 to Operators who seek to make use of data emanating from the Stock Exchange.

Ade Bajomo, Executive Director (ED), IT and Market Operations disclosed this at a Media Parley to clarify issues on the recent ban on Operators in the Nigerian Capital Market to stop the daily dissemination of Capital Market information to clients and investors.

According to Bajomo, Market Data comes in differently; it depends on what the data is meant to be used.

“For Brokers, if they want to distribute the data, the global standard is $20,000; plus a fee for user, we are saying for $5,000, you can distribute up to ten different reports at no additional costs, and you can distribute it to one million or 20 million people and we think that actually is a very positive move. If you don’t want to pay a penny, you still have a choice, just put the NSE’s link in whatever you are sending out” Bajomo said.

According to the NSE, following the launch of its NSE website, it launched its new data products.

The Exchange said these products come with an added value of i.e. brokers being able to print historical statements of more than one week compared to the previous service.

Also, there are new features like performance tracking over a period of time, VWAP, percentage contributions, 52week high and low etc. “as a result of the launch of the new data products the old products and charges will no longer apply” the NSE said.
