BEDFORD, Mass. (AP) — Interactive Data Corp., a provider of financial market data, said Friday its board is looking into “strategic alternatives” for the company.
Such alternatives can mean a sale of the company, but IDC did not say what the outcome or timing of the board’s review might be.
Interactive Data is majority owned by London-based Pearson PLC, which publishes Penguin books, the Financial Times and The Economist periodicals, and education materials.
