A recognised leader in trading systems integration

December 2012/January 2013 / 4 January 2013 / Steve Shaw, Editor, FX-MM

After an early career at PA Consulting Group, where he specialised in Financial IT systems, Higgins did an MBA in Finance at Cass Business School and then worked in the UK IT finance sector for a number of years. Four years ago he established Gold-i, which has quickly grown from a start-up business into a global market leader.

I asked Higgins about the company’s mission: “When I used to be employed in the real world, I saw a complete lack of technology expertise that you could buy in to do with retail trading. There are a lot of companies out there with business expertise in retail trading and I knew there would be considerable demand for a specialist technical partner to provide them with customisable solutions and run them properly. Our mission, therefore, is to be the world leader in trading systems integration. If you mention our name in any retail trading area in the world, people know us, so I believe we’re achieving that mission quite well.” (more…)

Rethinking risk

March 2012 / 9 March 2012 / Frances Maguire, Columnist, FX-MM

The management of foreign exchange risk is driving a need for multi-asset trading and positionkeeping risk management platforms to eliminate as much post-trade operational risk as possible. Frances Maguire looks at the solutions that are helping firms manage FX risk.

Increased volatility in the FX markets, particularly in the Eurozone, has been driving both brokers and the buy-side alike to find smarter ways to manage the impact of FX risk across all asset classes. Several differing strategies are emerging as a result of this. This is leading to increased automation to eliminate operational risk, post-trade, as well as the increased use of FX options and the inclusion of FX trading in multiasset class trading platforms.

These trends also include the move to more centralised treasury technology to gain better visibility of positions in order to manage risk, streamlining corporate-to-bank connectivity, which may include managed SWIFT connectivity and eBAM, as well as using hosted private cloud environments to remove the burden of IT maintenance and enable treasury departments to focus on liquidity management.
