IT Strategy Work
Trading Technology is at the forefront of strategic thinking and has been behind many of the changes in financial services in the last five years. Some examples of our strategy work is given below:

Exchange mergers – Technology Comparisons
Two Exchanges were due to merge and needed a consultancy to advise them on which technology to keep and which to retire. As Trading Technology has a clear understanding of the technology used by Exchanges, and has worked with multiple vendors, it was ideally placed to be able to recommend the best solution based on the requirements for Trading systems stretching into the future.

Funding arrangements
A major technology provider was considering investing in a new ISV venture and wanted a perspective on the likely success of the target company. Trading Technology accurately predicted the problems that the company was likely to encounter and foresaw a number of measures that needed to be taken before investing. This was a useful safety-check for the technology provider and ensured that their money was wisely spent.
Trading Technology has also advised other global organisations to fund or not to fund, and has done significant market research into he use of technology by broking firms and the likely revenues that they can expect.

Multi-million dollar rollout of technology
A large global investment bank wanted to install a trading system across its European offices. Trading Technology sized the project and proposed a strategy as to how the solutions would be implemented. Trading Technology also identified the solution provider to be the largest risk in the delivery of the project and helped form the contractual arrangements that ensured timely delivery of the solutions.


Trading Technology has also performed other strategy work that has resulted in significant changes to national and international financial services. Please contact us for further details.
