The Bloomberg Terminal is a powerful multi-functional tool used by over 300,000 finance professionals in 170+ countries. It is an interactive network providing coverage on every major asset class, most publicly traded securities, industries, economies and more. It provides real-time news, data, analytics, research, and business intelligence among other things all in a single platform.
While the lab is closed, Bloomberg can be accessed through its online portal. When the lab reopens, access will revert back to the terminals installed in the Lab. We ask users to limit their sessions to 90 minutes.
N.B. Bloomberg may only be used for non-commercial research purposes.
First-time users:
- First create a Bloomberg for Education Account
- Next, request access to a Bloomberg Terminal
Existing Users:
If your account gets deactivated, the Lab will need to contact Bloomberg.
