Now Available: End-Of-Day and TRACE Security Activity Report (TSAR)

February 01, 2018

FINRA has launched two new TRACE data products: the End-of-day TRACE Transaction File and the TRACE Security Activity Report.

The new End-of-Day TRACE Transaction File is a daily file that includes all transaction data disseminated as part of Real-Time TRACE transaction data on that day. The End-of-Day TRACE Transaction File will be provided to subscribers after the TRACE system closes at the end of each trading day, and is available for each data set for which Real-Time TRACE transaction data is available (i.e., the Corporate Bond Data Set, the Agency Data Set, SP Data Set and Rule 144A Data Set).

The new TRACE Security Activity Report is a monthly report, provided on a 3-month delayed basis, that provides aggregated statistics by security for corporate and agency bonds (“CA Bonds”). For each CA Bond that traded during the month the TRACE Security Activity Report will contain basic descriptive security elements, as well as volume and transaction related information.

The agreement, file layouts, samples and pricing information for the End-of-Day TRACE Transaction File and the TRACE Security Activity Report are available on the FINRA website.
