LSEG Data & Analytics, formerly Refinitiv, is an American-British global provider of financial market data and infrastructure.
The company was founded in 2018 as a subsidiary of Thomson Reuters, which then sold a 55% stake to Blackstone Group LP in August 2018. In October 2019, Blackstone and Thomson Reuters announced the sale of the company to London Stock Exchange Group. LSEG completed the US$27 billion purchase from the two previous owners in late January 2021, and Refinitiv is now a subsidiary of LSEG.
The company has an annual turnover of $6 billion, with more than 40,000 client companies[2] in 190 countries.[3][4]
