Case Study: Developing a clearer picture
Desktop space is a valuable commodity.
Enhancing usability and access to pricing information across market platforms is highly advantageous. Working in partnership with a major hedge fund, we explored off-the-shelf third-party offerings and internal development opportunities.
In conjunction with the trading desk and IT department, through combining multiple applications we successfully centralised the order management and pricing systems across global exchanges for various futures and currency markets.
With “real-world” experience, our team unearthed and facilitated opportunities that reduced costs and improve trading risk oversight.

This major project resulted in improved efficiencies across the wholesale markets business including front and back-office, risk management, compliance and management
