EXECUTION SOLUTIONS & ANALYTICS

Actionable Tools and Analytics:

• A lot of firms can do check-the-box TCA. We strive for actionable insights and present them through bleeding edge visualization rather than simply dumping reams of data on you

FinTech Innovation

• Sophisticated and nimble, our data scientists and developers are always looking for the latest approaches to helping institutional traders improve outcomes and assist other market participants with their TCA needs
• A recent example is the study we completed after our selection by Reg NMS Plan Participants (all US exchanges plus FINRA) to conduct the official assessment of the “Tick Size Pilot”. Needing to efficiently process tens of billions of records to find significance among factors and working in an abbreviated timeframe, we had to employ advanced data science techniques to succeed
