    Provides Financial Professionals and Active Traders Real-Time Access to Powerful Data and Tools

    FIA Futures & Options Expo, Booth #212, Chicago, November 2, 2010 — Interactive Data Corporation, a leading provider of financial market data, analytics and related solutions, today announced the release of Interactive Data Mobile, a companion offering to the Interactive Data suite of desktop and web-based solutions for financial professionals.

Interactive Data Mobile is also available on BlackBerry and other mobile devices.

    Two versions of Interactive Data Mobile are immediately available for the iPhone: a free version, which gives iPhone users access to data on a delayed basis, and a subscription-based version that provides users real-time streaming data.

    "There is strong demand from consumers and professionals alike for mobile applications that provide valuable financial information at their fingertips," said Paul Famular, vice president of business operations for Interactive Data Desktop Solutions. "Interactive Data Mobile provides clients the data they need via many of the most popular mobile devices available. Interactive Data Mobile is the perfect companion application to our desktop and web-based solutions."

    The iPhone application includes five primary screens that keep users informed of the market and allow them to monitor their portfolios:
