Key factors for selecting the right execution platform

Legacy vendors currently support the securities finance industry's requirements. To pick the right platform, market participants need to weigh:

  • Liquidity Providers must keep barriers to entry low and bring enough liquidity so lenders and borrowers can avoid fragmenting demand/supply.
  • Ease of onboarding Systems with robust cybersecurity protocols that are already embedded in the ecosystem can reduce time to market and simplify onboarding processes.
  • Trader workflow tools Tools that maximize traders’ time and reduce manual intervention increase efficiency, while advanced analytics can help improve P&L through better decision-making.
  • Smart matching and algorithms Smart matching algorithms can help achieve better quality matches, automate resolutions and reduce operational strain.
  • Post-trade integration Connecting trading and settlement processes in one seamless loop delivers efficiency gains that will be vital as settlement cycles shorten.
  • Commercial considerations Lower trading costs and reduced process friction minimize barriers to entry, promoting market depth, diversity and liquidity.
