Bloomberg visualises the future of trading

Global – The media company is tackling the friendship between human creativity and machine precision.

In a collaboration with Italian data visualisation studio Algo, Bloomberg aims to redefine the future of news media production. The companies worked together to create Charting Futures, a concise, weekly financial recap that brings the future of trading to Bloomberg’s global audience.

Each video launch will take place on a Monday after markets close, with Algo extracting the day's financial data from the Bloomberg API to generate the tailored charts and graphics accordingly. ‘Algo’s Charting Futures aims to put both man and machine at the forefront of a new way of visualising and sharing data by blending automated precision with a human touch,’ reads the press release.

Visual language is helping to demystify financial data by communicating it as a visible and tangible entity. For more, see our design direction Digital Dialogues.
