This week in New York City, PostSig hosted Pulse on Data—a dynamic gathering of market data leaders, compliance professionals, and consultants all focused on one thing: solving the post-signature contract problem.
Held under the banner of our newly launched PostSig Alliance, the event made one thing clear: market data management is no longer a back-office task. It's a strategic imperative. And firms who master it are gaining a true competitive edge.
Capital markets firms are dealing with increasingly complex vendor agreements. From regulatory compliance to rising data costs, the pressure is mounting. Yet many organizations still rely on spreadsheets, email chains, and legacy tools to manage critical contracts.
That’s no longer sustainable.
The risks are real:
Pulse on Data wasn't just about identifying these challenges. It showcased the firms—and technologies—leading the way forward.
The conversations were sharp, practical, and energizing—bringing clarity to the growing need for more innovative, AI-powered post-signature oversight in capital markets.
“Such a wonderful event—great discussions around contracts in the alt data space. I also really enjoyed learning more about PostSig’s process and product. Excited to follow what’s next. Thank you, Hendrik!”

What is market data management?
It’s the process of overseeing vendor relationships, licensing terms, usage rights, and costs tied to financial data sources. In today’s environment, this requires automation, compliance tracking, and real-time insights.
Why is market data contract performance important?
Because a data contract's value (and risk) happens after it's signed, that’s when compliance lapses, unexpected renewals, and budget overruns occur.
What makes PostSig different from CLM tools?
Traditional CLMs stop at the signature. PostSig starts there—managing the entire post-signature lifecycle with tools purpose-built for market data and vendor complexity.
Can I use PostSig with my current systems?
Absolutely. PostSig is designed to flex into your current workflows—whether you're using spreadsheets, shared folders, or internal tools. There’s no rip and replace. Our platform ingests contracts automatically and provides structured insights with minimal lift or disruption.
