Object Trading, a leading infrastructure provider for high-performance trading, today announced it has successfully completed the roll out of its latest enhancements to its FrontRisk Interactive In-Line Risk Management solution to its sell side customers.
Already a value-added component of Object Trading's FrontRunner Direct Market Access (DMA) platform, FrontRisk is aimed squarely at addressing the market need for ultra low latency without compromising risk management control.
Object Trading's FrontRisk offers the Sell Side a sophisticated in-line pre-trade risk constraint system, enabling the Sell Side Group to independently monitor and control the activity on all their active FrontRunner gateways. Additionally, FrontRisk's professional API allows direct integration with existing risk management solutions for a globally centralised overview and management of real time, on the fly pre-trade risk control.
FrontRisk is available on all Object Trading's broad range of 50 electronic trading destinations including the recently released European Equity markets such as LSE, Euronext, Xetra, CHI-X and with BATS to come later this year.
"With FrontRisk, the Sell Side now has a comprehensive, risk managed low latency solution for on or offsite algorithmic trading," said Gerry Turner, Executive Director, Object Trading, International Operations. "The Buy Side can still enjoy competitive latencies when measured against the more risky naked access systems with the added benefit of a single generic exchange interface, providing easy access to a wide range of markets.
"The perennial problem of how to satisfy the demand for ever lowering latencies bundled with the added problem of enforcing sophisticated risk constraints, as outlined by the SEC, is all solved in a ready-engineered solution that is proving itself in production with clients, today."
