Bloomberg

Bloomberg provides financial data, news and software for investment professionals. The Bloomberg Terminal combines market information, trade execution and messaging, while its enterprise products support investment analysis. PORT Enterprise connects permissioned private-fund data through a Canoe integration for analysis across asset classes. ASKB adds a conversational AI interface to the Terminal, extending how professionals interact with its information and tools.

Michael Bloomberg founded the company in 1981 with Thomas Secunda, Duncan MacMillan and Charles Zegar; Vlad Kliatchko is its CEO. Its financial-language research includes BloombergGPT, a 50-billion-parameter model introduced in 2023. The research combined 363 billion tokens from Bloomberg’s financial sources with 345 billion general-purpose tokens, exploring how specialized training could improve financial tasks while preserving general language capabilities.

Bloomberg’s terminals served more than 300,000 finance professionals globally in 2026. Separately, Bloomberg Media reported over 707,000 paying subscribers in February 2026. Bloomberg also signed an agreement in July 2026 to acquire Canoe Intelligence, which automates private-markets data collection and delivery. The transaction remained proposed and under initial ACCC assessment in August 2026.
