LSEG, the global markets infrastructure and data provider, and Snowflake, the AI Data Cloud company, have agreed a broader five-year partnership across the entire enterprise.
The deal was unveiled at the Snowflake World Tour and aims to put reliable financial data directly into the tools customers already use.
The partnership pairs LSEG’s financial data and market infrastructure with Snowflake’s cloud-based data and AI capabilities. Together, the firms want to create a more open ecosystem where high-quality financial information is easier and more secure to reach and exchange. In practice, clients will be able to draw on LSEG’s financial intelligence without leaving their existing platforms and applications.
As part of the agreement, LSEG is increasing its investment in Snowflake. This will support expected growth, migration work and client-facing data services across its Markets, Data & Analytics, AI and Risk Intelligence divisions. The arrangement also runs the other way. Snowflake will take out a licence for LSEG’s Risk Intelligence World-Check services and use them for its own customer onboarding and third-party risk checks.
The expanded deal builds on LSEG’s existing use of Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud for data and analytics, reporting and Snowflake Marketplace offerings. Shared customers will be able to combine licensed LSEG content with their own in-house data and information from other third parties. They can then run analytics and AI on that combined data inside a governed setting.
LSEG works with customers at every stage of trading through an open ecosystem of market infrastructure and data solutions, helping them access and deploy capital more efficiently.
Snowflake describes itself as a platform for the AI era that helps businesses innovate more quickly and extract greater value from their data. Over 14,500 customers worldwide use its AI Data Cloud to build, use and share data, applications and AI, including hundreds of the largest companies globally.
LSEG CEO David Schwimmer said, “This expanded collaboration advances our ‘LSEG Everywhere’ AI and data strategy, bringing our financial intelligence into customers’ chosen environments and enabling them to scale AI with trusted data and clear controls. We are also delighted that Snowflake has selected our Risk Intelligence products as its KYC compliance solution.”
Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy said, “The future of finance will be built by institutions that can put AI to work directly on their most trusted data, without ever compromising governance or control. That’s what it means to become an Agentic Enterprise, and it’s what LSEG and Snowflake are building together: an open, governed foundation where the world’s most regulated markets can move at the speed of AI. In this industry, trust isn’t a constraint on innovation. It’s the platform for it.”
