    Etrading Software confirms intention to join the UK bond Consolidated Tape Accredited Partner programme

    07 May 2026

    Accreditation will enable ETS Connect Plus clients to access integrated, round‑the‑clock support services alongside the UK bond Consolidated Tape (CT). 

    Etrading Software, provider of the ETS Connect Plus enriched bond data service, today announced that it will apply to join ETS Connect UK’s new Accredited Partner programme. The open ecosystem enables third-party providers to deliver integrated, value‑added support services to market participants, working alongside the UK bond CT during market hours and providing extended coverage where required. 

    The Consolidated Tape data is an integral part of the ETS Connect Plus service. Our global client base, comprising end users, redistributors and value-add service providers, expect us to provide best-in-class client support wherever in the world they are located. The CTP’s Accredited Partner programme allows us to meet this need effectively. Our announcement today provides our clients peace of mind that there will be no disruption to their service in the second half of this year.

    Sassan Danesh, CEO at Etrading Software

    The composition of the UK bond CT reflects the pivotal role of the UK in global fixed income markets. As a result, we welcomed last year the CTP’s commitment to providing the CT data feed on a 24-hour basis. Joining the CTP’s Accredited Partner programme is integral to meeting the round-the-clock support needs of our clients who rely on this data in their trading, risk and compliance functions.

    As part of the phased introduction of the Accredited Partner model, Etrading Software expects to provide production support to ETS Connect Plus clients from 7 December 2026, ahead of full transition on 4 January 2027.
