SourceMedia Introduces the Bond Buyer Data Workstation
New York, NY (PRWEB) September 26, 2017 -- The Bond Buyer, the primary source of news, analysis and insight for municipal professionals, has announced the upcoming release of the Bond Buyer Data Workstation, a new service that gives subscribers access to dynamic, interactive secondary-market data from directly within the Bond Buyer experience.
The new Bond Buyer Data Workstation provides a comprehensive and transparent view of the municipal market that supports compliance needs and informs decision-making.
