EquiLend Introduces AI Assistant to Enhance Securities Finance Insights
EquiLend, a fintech leader in securities finance, has launched a new AI-powered assistant to improve how users access securities finance and short interest data. Integrated into its Data & Analytics suite, this assistant is available via the DataLend interface and the Orbisa app on the Bloomberg Terminal.
Unlike common chatbots, EquiLend’s assistant is specifically trained on the firm’s proprietary research and market insights. This focus allows it to provide quick, relevant answers that help traders, analysts, and portfolio managers analyze years of securities lending data and trends with accuracy and speed.
Faster Access to Key Market Data and Trends
The securities finance sector demands timely and precise information. EquiLend’s AI assistant offers a chat-based interface where users can ask targeted questions such as:
- “Which stocks drove the most securities lending revenue in June 2025?”
- “What is a short squeeze?”
- “How are global fixed income lending trends evolving?”
This lets users quickly surface relevant trends, risk signals, and revenue drivers, helping them stay informed and make better decisions.
Enhancing User Experience and Decision-Making
EquiLend’s managing director of data and analytics highlighted how the AI assistant aligns with changing client preferences for data consumption. By offering a more intuitive way to explore securities finance insights, the tool supports users in identifying risks and opportunities faster.
The CEO of EquiLend emphasized that this launch marks a step forward in how securities finance data is delivered and consumed. The combination of speed, depth of insight, and ease of use empowers professionals to act with greater confidence.
For finance professionals looking to deepen their AI skills and stay ahead, exploring targeted AI training can be a practical next step. Resources like Complete AI Training’s finance-focused AI tools offer relevant courses and certifications.
