Using bloomberg on PC
Has anyone done this? I used to do this at my SM (i.e. using Bloomberg terminal on my PC away from work environment). But now at a platform. Wondering if I will get into trouble for doing this.

Based on previous WSO threads, the use of Bloomberg terminals can be subject to firm policies, especially regarding compliance and information security. At a strict platform, there might be tighter controls on where and how you can access Bloomberg services. Here are some considerations:
Compliance and InfoSec: Firms have strict compliance and information security teams that may restrict the use of Bloomberg terminals to secure devices and networks.
Remote Access: Some firms may allow remote access to Bloomberg terminals, but this is typically through secure, firm-provided equipment or networks.
Firm Policies: It's essential to review your firm's policies on using financial tools like Bloomberg outside the office environment. Unauthorized use could lead to disciplinary action.
Licensing: Bloomberg licenses are often tied to specific devices or locations, and using a terminal outside of these parameters could violate licensing agreements.
If you've done this at your previous firm, it doesn't necessarily mean it's acceptable at your current firm. It's always best to check with your compliance department or IT team before accessing any work-related systems on personal devices.
