Treasury Common Services Center (TCSC) Procurement, on behalf of The Office of Financial Research (OFR) and the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), intends to contract with London Stock Exchange Group PLC, 10 Paternoster Square London EC4M 7LS United Kingdom. There is no competitive vendor or regulatory agency that provides these datasets. London Stock Exchange (LSEG) has exclusive rights to the required Masterfile data. On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), which created the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) and the Office of Financial Research (OFR). The FSOC is charged with three primary purposes: to identify risks to the financial stability of the United States, to promote market discipline, and to respond to emerging threats to the stability of the U.S. financial system. The FSOC brings together the expertise of federal financial regulators, state regulators, and an insurance expert appointed by the President. The mission of the OFR is to support the Financial Stability Oversight Council (�the Council�) in promoting financial stability by: collecting data on behalf of the Council; providing such data to the Council and member agencies; standardizing the types and formats of data reported and collected; performing applied research and essential long-term research; developing tools for risk measurement and monitoring; performing other related services; making the results of the activities of the OFR available to financial regulatory agencies; and assisting such member agencies in determining the types of formats of data authorized by Dodd-Frank Act to be collected by such member agencies.
