Co-create the future of market transparency with EMMA Labs

Partner Insights from
EMMA Labs is the innovation sandbox of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB), giving municipal bond market data users the opportunity to co-create the future of market transparency. EMMA Labs allows users to put prototypes to the test, helping to improve their utility and accelerate the pathway to bring enhanced market transparency tools to life on the Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA®) website. This is a key element of the MSRB’s strategic plan to leverage data to fuel innovation, enable deeper market insights, and facilitate regulatory modernization.

EMMA Labs is debuting in 2022 with two Active Labs:
  1. A keyword search engine leveraging natural language processing, machine learning and artificial intelligence to unlock the information contained within the hundreds of thousands of disclosure documents submitted to EMMA as unstructured PDFs.
  2. A dynamic dashboard for market data analysis that empowers users to discover and visualize market trends.
An additional Idea Labs section provides a forum for users to submit and provide feedback on ideas for potential future Active Labs.

Hear Brian Anthony, Chief Data Officer, MSRB, highlight how the award-winning EMMA website can help you.
