TRACE - OTC Corporate Bond Transaction Data
TRACE stands for Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine.
Introduced in July of 2002 by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, TRACE consolidates transaction data for all eligible corporate bonds - investment grade, high yield and convertible debt. As a result, individual investors and market professionals can access information on 100 percent of OTC activity representing over 99 percent of total U.S. corporate bond market activity in over 30,000 securities.
The TRACE Historical Time and Sales data is available through WRDS. The information collected and disseminated for all publicly traded corporate bonds by TRACE includes the time of execution, price, yield, and volume.
