9fin, the AI-powered analytics platform for debt capital markets, has announced its acquisition of Bond Radar, a provider of intelligence and data for the international bond and loan markets.
The move strengthens 9fin’s offering by integrating Bond Radar’s historical data and market reach, particularly in investment grade debt and emerging markets.
“This acquisition is a step towards our ambitious vision of being the number one provider of debt market intelligence,”
said Steven Hunter, CEO and co-founder of 9fin.
“By combining Bond Radar’s market reach, client relationships, and historical transaction data, we’re solidifying our position as the go-to platform for debt market professionals, offering the tools and insights they need in today’s complex financial landscape.”
9fin currently covers Europe and the US across high yield bonds, leveraged loans, distressed debt, CLOs, private credit, and asset-based finance.
The platform offers AI tools, data, and analytics for these asset classes through a unified interface.
The acquisition of Bond Radar will expand 9fin’s reach into investment grade debt and asset-based finance, while also increasing its geographic presence in key emerging markets like Asia and Latin America.
Bond Radar’s 20 years of historical data will enhance 9fin’s reporting and analytics capabilities.
Gregor Davis, Director of Bond Radar, commented,
“For two decades, Bond Radar has been recognised for its accurate, detailed, and timely intelligence on global primary debt issuance markets. I’m confident that integrating with 9fin’s platform will enable us to extend our coverage to a broader client base.”
