Bloomberg has acquired Barclays Risk Analytics and Index Solutions, which includes the Barclays fixed income benchmark indexes. Bloomberg's global head of financial products Jean-Paul Zammitt said benchmark and strategy indexes were of growing importance in investment markets and Bloomberg wanted to be in the forefront of developments. Bloomberg also operates the Bloomberg Commodity Index (formerly the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index) and the Bloomberg AusBond Indices (formerly UBS Australia Bond index family).
