LSEG Workspace Platform Hit by Major Outage

On Friday, the Workspace news and data platform of LSEG Group experienced an outage that impacted user access worldwide

LSEG reported that its news services were experiencing a global technical issue during the Asian trading session, which impeded the publication of news on its platform.

LSEG stated that the London Stock Exchange and other services within the group continued to function as usual.

Separately, it disclosed that it was encountering technical difficulties in the publication of its spot and forward currency prices at 0600 GMT.

In a message to clients that Reuters viewed, LSEG stated, “This is currently under investigation, and we will provide further information as soon as we can.”

It was evident that the outage was disrupting the financial sector as London trading commenced.

“This is the mother of all outages,” exclaimed a London-based trader.

The significant IT outage that affected companies worldwide resulted in the blackout of LSEG’s news and data platform.
Reuters in London was unable to obtain a comment from LSEG at the time.
