  • 1. Is there a similar way to get all RICs via RTMDS just like for edge servers

https://developers.lseg.com/en/article-catalog/article/all-rics-available-on-elektron-realtime

2. How do we download all the necessary UST & EGB’s from Refinitiv?

As in we have the list of RICs we want, but there are new bonds coming out regularly with their own individual identifiers. Do we need to download each bond individually or would we download the ric and then get all the bonds related to that RIC?

  • RTMDS also supports Symbol List domain as shown in the article. The Symbol List may/may not carry all the instruments depending on what the list describes. In general, there is no uniform way to get the universe of instruments from RTMDS. The products like DSS or RDP bulk which provide fundamental data types are best for building the security master.

    When subscribing on RTMDS, the application would received pricing data for one instrument that it subscribes to - unless the instrument is a chain RIC. If the bond that you mention has a chain, which describes all the binds in the chain, then app should be able to walk the chain and get data for all the bonds in it.

    To check the chain RIC and to clarify the data for these RIC's, please reach out to the content specialists at LSEG MyAccount.
