Commercial Account Information
What do YAHOO, MICROSOFT, PRODIGY, GO2NET, and scores of other on-line providers have in common?
THEY ALL GET THEIR MARKET DATA FROM CSI®
CSI has long been the data source of choice for discriminating corporations who manage their own assets and for companies who repackage market data for sale to traders or investors. CSI's commercial data feed allows the corporate IT manager to quickly download the universe of market information for processing by appropriate software and to perform analytical modeling tasks. As of October 2002, about 100 websites, mutual fund companies and financial investment firms subscribe to CSI commercial services. The number is growing rapidly as word spreads of CSI's unique services and features. For the full text of a CSI Technical Journal article explaining some of CSI's distinct advantages, click here.
CSI is the recognized leader in data integrity, completeness and accuracy. In an independent study conducted by Futures Magazine, CSI was named "the best" firm in terms of accuracy, and completeness (no omissions) from among many firms which included industry giants such as Reuters®, Bridge/CRB® and many others.

Any business using CSI data for website presentation, redistribution of data or analytical use by more than three individuals would be classified as a Commercial Account.
Updating Alternatives
Daily updates are downloaded via the Internet FTP (“pull” mechanism) in the CSI ‘Comma Separated Values’ (CSV) Format. In addition, clients have the choice of receiving the daily files by FTP put, HTTP get, Email drop, or all of the above. It is up to the customer to decide which method to use. No client or server software is provided by CSI for any of these access methods. Historical data is provided as a custom order and may be downloaded via the FTP or supplied on CD-ROM.
Support
Commercial subscribers may select from many different database categories including domestic commodities, overseas commodities, stocks, options, indexes, mutual funds and more. All CSI databases are maintained at each user's data processing facility. CSI provides such users with daily feed according to their market data needs, and updates each customer's database. A typical daily data feed includes dividends, IPOs, symbol changes, capital gains, stock splits, additions, deletions and any corrections that may affect the content of the database.
Licensing Agreement and Pricing
Commercial accounts are subject to a customized Licensing Agreement and pricing. Pricing of CSI market data depends upon application, audience, historical content, market classes of coverage and other considerations. Rates are calculated based upon these factors.
