NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Xignite, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand financial web services for mission-critical applications, today announced the availability of XigniteGlobalQuotes, the first web service to deliver delayed stock quotes for global established and emerging markets. The new service strengthens Xignites suite of nearly 60 financial web services designed to help organizations increase business agility, competitiveness and profitability.

In an increasingly global economy, there is mounting demand for timely and easy-to-integrate data from emerging markets such as China, India, Brazil and Eastern Europe. This information has traditionally been complex to obtain and integrate into business applications and processes. Now, XigniteGlobalQuotes lets businesses integrate delayed stock data into their applications and websites in minutes with just a few lines of code and without deploying any infrastructure. XigniteGlobalQuotes is the ideal solution to power websites, portals, wireless applications and custom financial workstations.

The initial roll-out of XigniteGlobalQuotes will include delayed stock quotes for the following exchanges: London Stock Exchange, Deutsche Börse (Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hanover, Munich, Düsseldorf and XETRA), Mumbai Stock Exchange, Prague Stock Exchange, EuroNext Stock Exchanges (Paris, Amsterdam, Lisbon and Brussels), Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Tokyo Stock Exchange, Shanghai Stock Exchange, Singapore Stock Exchange, Toronto Stock Exchange and Brazil Stock Exchange. Future upgrades will integrate additional markets into the service.

For the last four years, Xignite has been at the forefront in delivering web services for the financial industry. We identified a strong, unmet demand for global financial data and are meeting it with XigniteGlobalQuotes, said Stephane Dubois, founder and CEO of Xignite. With cloud computing gaining traction in the enterprise and within financial institutions, IT departments are recognizing that cloud-based web services offer a flexible and cost-effective alternative for sourcing market data to power mission-critical applications.
