Capital markets firms are navigating one of the most consequential modernization cycles in a generation. T+1 and T+0 settlement, the mainstreaming of digital assets and the arrival of practical AI in the front-to-back stack are reshaping how the industry operates. Across each of these shifts, one common thread has emerged: The firms best positioned to lead are those that can turn their operational, risk and capital markets data into a governed, accessible, enterprise-grade strategic asset.
The Nasdaq Calypso platform has long been trusted by the world's largest and most complex financial institutions to run their capital markets operations.
The opportunity now is to unlock this rich, high-value data to power deeper analytics, scalable client-facing insights and a unified, AI-ready data foundation that seamlessly connects with platforms, applications and services across the ecosystem.
That is exactly what Nasdaq Calypso Intelligence is built to do and here’s why it matters to our client community.
What Is Nasdaq Calypso Intelligence?
Nasdaq Calypso Intelligence is a purpose-built, Nasdaq-managed intelligence platform. It extends Calypso by unifying, governing and operationalizing enterprise data—including external data sources—into a trusted, AI-ready foundation that enables advanced analytics, self-service insights and scalable reporting.
Delivered as a managed extension of Calypso and available as a flexible SaaS offering, it works alongside existing Calypso deployments. There is no disruption to workflows and no impact to the processes that clients rely on today. It is designed to make Calypso data immediately more useful while complementing the Calypso dataset with ecosystem imported data from across front-office trading, risk, operations, client servicing and executive reporting.
In short: Calypso remains the mission-critical platform where the business runs. Calypso Intelligence is the augmented layer that unlocks what that data can do next.
Unlocking Data Opportunities: Three Strategic Outcomes
Calypso Intelligence delivers value through three connected outcomes, supporting a framework we've built with clients, for clients.
1) Master your data
Unify and govern Calypso data and imported data into a single, trusted foundation. Stabilize data models across Calypso upgrades so integrated downstream systems, reports and analytics remain consistent through every release cycle. Crystallize historical time series for additional reporting views and establish the type of governed, semantically rich foundation that’s required for AI, machine learning and future innovation.
2) Empower your teams
Put trusted data and insights directly into the hands of the business, enabling faster, more confident decision-making, shortening time to insight, and freeing technical capacity to focus on higher-value engineering work. Traders, risk officers, operations leads and business analysts can explore, model and act on data with confidence.
3) Engage your clients
Deliver client-facing reporting and insights at scale. Accelerate service and responsiveness with self-service access to and the delivery of customized reporting. Create differentiated, data-driven client experiences that strengthen relationships and open new commercial opportunities.

Why Calypso Intelligence Matters for the Market
Calypso Intelligence isn't just a new capability—it reflects broader shifts that are accelerating across the capital markets industry.
From data extraction to data activation
The industry is moving beyond one-off extracts and custom pipelines. Firms need a governed intelligence layer that activates data across the enterprise consistently, at scale and with clear lineage.

Trusted data should not sit behind long request queues. Democratizing access with the right controls can become a competitive advantage across trading, risk, operations and client servicing.

AI and agentic capabilities will only be as trustworthy as the data foundations underneath them. A governed, semantically rich, version-stable layer is the difference between AI experimentation and AI in production.
