Mastercard Brings New Industry and Retail Insights to the Open:FactSet Marketplace
March 06 2019 - 8:00AM
FactSet, a global provider of integrated financial information,
analytical applications, and industry-leading services, and
Mastercard today announced the launch of new industry and retail
sales insights on the Open:FactSet Marketplace™ (OFM).
The OFM will feature Mastercard SpendingPulse™, which provides
insights into overall retail spending trends across all payment
types, including cash and check. For a deeper analysis within
SpendingPulse, clients can also utilize Mastercard’s separate
Sector Insights reports, which offer sector-specific details on
spending patterns. Sector Insights are available on the OFM
beginning in March, while the broader, syndicated Mastercard
SpendingPulse content is scheduled to launch on the platform in the
coming months.
“Actionable insights are the sweet spot for Mastercard and our
partners, and Mastercard SpendingPulse has become a leading source
for rich and robust retail trends across verticals,” said Dimi
Dosis, President, Information Services and Advisors Consulting at
Mastercard. “Our collaboration with FactSet will allow us to
deliver these deep insights to a broader set of global
organizations, helping them to better understand, develop, and
refine strategies.”
Mastercard SpendingPulse and its corresponding Sector Insights
report on national retail sales across all payment types in select
markets around the world. The findings are based on aggregate sales
activity in the Mastercard payments network, coupled with
survey-based estimates for certain other payment forms, such as
cash and check.
“Our clients are increasingly searching for quality data to fuel
their quantitative models, which is why they turn to FactSet,” said
Rich Newman, Senior Vice President and Global Head of Content and
Technology Solutions, FactSet. “Mastercard’s robust sector and
spending insights have the quality and integrity clients need to
help them better understand economic trends. The inclusion of
Mastercard SpendingPulse in the Open:FactSet Marketplace is a sign
of things to come as more companies look to leverage FactSet’s
global reach and data integration capabilities.”
