S&P Global Inc. $SPGI, one of the world’s leading financial information and analytics providers, has announced plans to spin off its Mobility Technology division into a separate publicly traded entity. The move, revealed on Tuesday, signals a strategic refinement of the company’s core business structure, aiming to sharpen its focus on high-growth, data-driven segments in the financial and commodity sectors.
