SOLVE Redefines Municipal Bond Pricing with AI-Powered Relative Value Intelligence

New visualization capabilities empower buy-side and sell-side traders to evaluate bond value changes over time to achieve portfolio precision

NEW YORK, April 29, 2025 – SOLVE, the leading provider of pre-trade data and predictive pricing for fixed income securities markets, has unveiled new capabilities for SOLVE Px™, the firm’s proprietary, AI-driven, predictive price data for the municipal bond market. Available immediately, the new Relative Value Analysis tool enables fixed income professionals to assess and visualize dynamic changes in a bond’s value over time, providing advanced analytics to optimize portfolio decisions and manage risk effectively.

SOLVE developed this latest enhancement in direct response to industry demand, as municipal bond traders, portfolio managers, and risk managers increasingly voiced the need for a clearer, more dynamic view of bond value across changing market conditions. SOLVE worked closely with clients to design a solution that brings greater transparency, context, and usability to pre-trade decision-making.

“Relative Value Analysis brings a new level of transparency and intelligence to a market that’s often been difficult to navigate,” said Eugene Grinberg, CEO of SOLVE. “It empowers traders to build conviction in pricing with precision and speed by using AI-predicted pricing rather than relying on fragmented historical data or evaluated prices that may not keep up with volatility in the markets. This gives market participants a more current and actionable view of bond value over time.”

Key functionality includes:

• Establish relative value: Users can quickly assess if bonds are rich or cheap relative to their historical performance or their peers to help decide whether to buy, hold, or sell based on predicted trade value.
• Identify trends and anomalies: View price movements for each security over a defined date range. This allows users to make informed trading decisions by easily spotting trends and anomalies in price, spread or yield changes over a defined date range, allowing traders to react promptly to changes and stay ahead of the market.
• Compare and filter bonds: The ability to leverage the SOLVE Quotes™ search feature to identify a group of similar bonds for comparison. The filtering capabilities enable users to exclude bonds that traders currently view as rich or cheap relative to their performance over time. Buy-side traders can also analyze their portfolio positions to look for relatively rich or cheap positions, or to find positions with significant price movements.

Grinberg added, “One of the biggest challenges municipal bond traders face is managing the sheer volume of securities available at any given time. At SOLVE, we set out to address this challenge by delivering an AI-driven predictive pricing platform that provides a centralized view of over 900,000 live municipal bonds, covering more than 93% of the active market. This is further supported by data on more than 1.25 million securities and over 20 million daily quotes, giving traders the clarity and real-time context they need to make smarter, faster decisions.”
