Post Trade Processing Engine

Trading flows optimisation

Problem solved

Automation of the enrichment and deal capture flow: design and implementation of an integrated platform supporting automated deal enrichment and capture in the client's ETRM system post execution on their trading platform screen.

Our competitive advantage

Thanks to Ark's expertise, the Head of Trading and Portfolio Manager were able to communicate their needs efficiently and directly to the development team, without the need to enter into lengthy and time consuming explanations.

Our experience of the trading domain allowed us to quickly converge on a suitable design which, once prototyped, was rapidly evolved into the final production solution in an agile manner.
