About MDDL
Market Data Definition Language (MDDL) is an XML-based interchange format and common data dictionary on the fields needed to describe 1) financial instruments, 2) corporate events affecting value and tradability and 3) market-related, economic and industrial indicators.

MDDL Mission Statement

The goal of Market Data Definition Language (MDDL) is to define a publicly available standard that provides a generic XML-based interchange format for the fields needed to describe financial instruments (including identifiers and current/historical values), corporate events (including specific corporate and instrument information affecting value and tradability), and market-related information (including economic and industrial indicators). The goal is to promote data interoperability.
  • MDDL focuses on broad field definitions for market data content, applicable to multiple classes, with specific qualifiers or clarifying properties so that data may be described exactly.
  • The initial constructs of MDDL are for snapshot and time series applications. MDDL can be extended to historical, streaming and interpretative and vendor-specific data models as appropriate.
  • Intellectual property rights in MDDL are owned by the Financial Information Services Division (FISD) of the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), but freely licensed and made available on an "as is" basis.
