Why did you change the name of the Market Intelligence platform to S&P Capital IQ Pro?
At S&P Global Market Intelligence, our strategy is to deliver a premier desktop solution to our users. Since its inception, the Market Intelligence platform was built to expand with new data sets and intuitive workflows: first by integrating the breadth of content from S&P Capital IQ with the depth of industry data from SNL; then by layering in new and relevant content and functionality, such as ESG and private company data, as requested by our clients. Though the Market Intelligence platform name has served us well, the time is right to position our desktop solutions under our signature product brand, S&P Capital IQ. With its expanded datasets and enhanced capabilities, plus our commitment to further invest in differentiated content, analytics, and workflow tools, the
Market Intelligence platform is now S&P Capital IQ Pro.
