We bring a wealth of capabilities and advisory expertise as well as hands on change delivery across all areas of risk management, combining experience from energy markets and the financial industry.
Digital innovation in trading
Trading technology is more than ever more than just core applications. Trading organizations face unprecedented challenges to their commercial role, their operating model and how they will leverage digital innovation and data insights to deliver their business strategy. We work with clients to:
- Better align their digital investments to commercial value - be clear how they will win and the capabilities they need to achieve this
- Recognising the value of their core systems, we help organisations navigate away from application centric landscapes to truly data centric architectures - building critical data foundations that liberate data and enable genuine digital innovation
- Organise and operate in a different way to embed ideation, agility and responsiveness to their ways of working
- Deliver new and relevant digital products and services that help generate additive GM, reduce OPEX, and/or mitigate risk.
Trading architecture and IT advisory
We work with our clients to design their future target state architectures, allowing them to unlock value, to enter new markets and trade new products. We also work with clients to plan their delivery roadmaps and transition states and pride ourselves on being pragmatic and realistic in our designs and plans. Most of the team have done “big IT delivery” for trading organisations before so we know what good looks like – we know what works and what doesn’t. We help our clients to successfully deliver change whilst avoiding the common delivery pitfalls.
