An Overview |
Multi-Asset Online Trading - Corporates, Hedge Funds and Banks
IT&e's NextSet PTX (Private Trading eXchange) is a
multi-asset web-based transaction platform that enables
banks and finacial institutions to define products and
to buy and sell these products with corporate treasurers
and institutional clients. Trades can be conducted from
price requests to confirmation and settlement.
PTX can also be deployed by banks and financial institutions
to enable trading in multiple asset classes including
Foreign Exchange, Money Markets, Commercial Paper, Fixed Income,
Repos, and Derivatives, and facilitates integration with all
mid- and back-office systems.
PTX's support of multiple asset classes makes it unique,
allowing the financial institution to offer cross-product
exotics and making the online trading initiative cheaper and
easier. PTX is also exceptionally flexible by enabling banks
and financial institutions to create electronic trading support
for new asset classes on the fly without making any changes to
the software.
NextSet PTX as a Trading Platform for Providing Services to Other Financial Institutions
Using NextSet PTX regional banks or financial institutions
can partner with correspondent banks and institutions to
provide them with liquidity, trading services and in some cases
a trading platform. The regional banks or institutions provide
the rates/prices, transaction capabilities and settlement capabilities
for the products in which they wish to provide liquidity. PTX easily
and efficiently integrates completely into the systems of the regional
banks or institutions and is therefore effectively a "pre-certified
channel" for liquidity - thus providing a "ready-to-deploy" solution
to the clients of the correspondent banks or institutions.
The regional banks or institutions can also provide the PTX application
as a hosted service to correspondent banks or institutions. By so doing,
the regional banks or institutions free the correspondent banks or
institutions from investing in and maintaining technology.
