Refinitiv

Refinitiv, now operating as LSEG Data & Analytics following the London Stock Exchange Group’s acquisition, serves over 40,000 customers and 400,000 end users across approximately 190 markets. For investment teams at family offices, the core proposition is access to one of the largest repositories of financial market data globally, combined with analytics tools and exclusive distribution rights to Reuters news. The breadth of coverage spans equities, fixed income, currencies, and derivatives, giving investment professionals a single point of access for market intelligence across asset classes.

Family offices using LSEG’s offering would likely engage through one or more of the following products:

• LSEG Workspace: a customisable desktop and workflow environment for market data, news, and analytics
• DataScope Select: on-demand pricing and reference data across 80 million active and retired securities
• World-Check: structured KYC, AML, and sanctions screening data covering 240 countries and territories
• Knowledge Direct: API-based delivery of LSEG content into proprietary portals or applications
• StarMine and Quantitative Analytics Database: quantitative models and factor data for investment analysis

The platform’s scale is its defining characteristic and its principal trade-off. Family offices gain access to institutional-grade data infrastructure and AI-powered analytics that would be impossible to replicate independently. However, the product suite is designed for enterprise financial institutions, not optimised for family office workflows specifically. Pricing is not disclosed publicly and is typically negotiated at institutional scale, which may represent a barrier for smaller family offices. Teams requiring a purpose-built family office reporting or portfolio management environment will likely need to integrate LSEG data feeds into a separate system rather than rely on LSEG tools as a standalone operational platform.
