Bloomberg is a terminal-bound financial services platform that provides analysis and quotes for equities (stocks) and indices, company and economic data, industry and market news, and advanced analytical and data functions. It is an industry standard in the financial services and investment banking industries.
Academic terminals, including those in the Business Library, do not have the trading module and market data is delayed by 15 minutes.
Bloomberg can only be accessed from the eight dedicated terminals or workstations in the Business Library. Users cannot access the workstations or Bloomberg remotely.
The Bloomberg computers require an active Western Identity - alumni and guests are not eligible for access.
Any of the workstations in the Business Library can be booked in advance of your visit for up to 2 hours per day.
