Enhanced Evaluation Transparency
Providing data insight into ICE’s fixed income evaluations
ICE has been evaluating fixed income instruments for over 50 years. Over that time, we have increased the amounts of data we consume and process to produce our high-quality evaluations. That “augmented intelligence” process creates dozens of data metrics utilized by our evaluators and algorithms. It is those metrics that are at the heart of the EET offering.
