The group plans to launch its first fund in December 2002 - Astin Vega - one of a new breed of hedge funds which aims to make returns regardless of market conditions by treating volatility as a tradable asset.

Charles Bray, CEO, Astin, says: "We chose Value for its straight-through processing capabilities. The flexibility of its front-end, especially the marking of arbitrage positions and volatility curves was also of great interest to our traders."

Sophis says Astin is its first hedge fund client.
