API Features

Terms Lookup

The primary use case is to retrieve latest terms of structured products. For looking up instrument terms you need to know the ISIN. The data source for the terms is Connexor® IBT and IBE, i.e. the precondition for finding an instrument is, that the issuer submitted the data to Connexor®.

Example: json csv xml

Key Figures

Beside reference data it is also possible to receive up to date key figures, based on the previous day closing prices.

  • strike (distance)
  • autocall, barrier (distance, hit probability)
  • greeks (delta, gamma, theta, vega, rho, leverage, intrinsic value, time value)
  • payoff at maturity
  • yield figures (side yield, max yield, bonus yield, outperformance level)
  • risk figures (value at risk, SRI)

Example: json csv

In addition, a user can subscribe for an instrument, then he will receive the latest reference data updates and calculation results daily.

Scope & Data restrictions

All products traded at SIX, BX or DOTS can be looked up without restrictions.

Products not traded at SIX, BX or DOTS but with Service Offering Type 4 and 504 can be looked up, as soon as the terms are final. The issuer has the right to restrict the access. He can either exclude customers from viewing products or he can exclude parts of the terms from being published.

To prevent mass downloads the number of requests per time is limited.

Request only

All use cases covered start with a known trade or instrument, i.e. ISIN. Thus, there is no search functionality or mass download feature.

Usage Reporting
