It’s now the market leader, with 315,000 subscribers.īloomberg is famously averse to discounting, and only offers one level of subscription with access to all data. But we’ve got our hands on what Bloomberg has charged going back to 2001, when the company had about 160,000 terminal subscribers and still trailed its greatest rival, Thomson Reuters. The closely held company doesn’t publicize its prices, which are the most expensive among financial data providers. Bloomberg is now charging $24,000 a year for a single terminal subscription.
