- Vendor Contract Management: Manage contracts with market data vendors, ensuring optimal coverage for all business units while realizing cost savings. Work with stakeholders to analyze gaps and negotiate streamlined agreements.
- Data Licensing: Manage contracts with exchanges for market data usage. Partner with compliance and legal teams to ensure Apex meets all regulatory and licensing requirements.
