ATI is a leader in domain-led process solutions that help derivative desks achieve superior business value in trading and risk management.  We have relationships with some of the largest derivative players, both on the dealer side and on the buy-side.   ATI utilizes a multi-dimensional framework that unifies derivatives business specialization with technology savvy methodology to help clients evaluate the appropriate course of action based on an organization’s immediate and longer terms needs.  To ensure success, we insist that staff be knowledgeable in derivatives, project management, implementation and support.

We recognize that selecting the best route in handling your derivatives trading and processing needs requires scenario analysis and combinations that not only incorporate asset classes traded today, but also those slated for tomorrow. 

Below are some examples of what ATI considers when helping our front office clients build their business strategy:

  • Instrument Coverage: Today vs. Time to Market for new instruments
  • Trading Volume: Analysis of Current vs. 1Y vs. 3Y vs. 5Y
  • Existing System Capability: Integration Capacity and Risk Analysis
  • Integration of Asset Classes – Are Derivatives stand-alone or are they analyzed within the context of other asset types?
  • OMS Considerations – Use of an existing system enhanced to support derivatives
  • Models and Analytics – Industry Accepted vs. Proprietary Usage
  • Service Level – Superior service with thoroughly documented support
  • Scalability – The solution must adapt to seasonal trading spikes, as well as industry and product growth
  • Operational Risk – Reduce risk and inefficiency caused by manual and redundant processes in confirmations and settlements
  • Cost – Determine ROI and minimize cost of ownerships of new front-to-back systems

ATI has focused on leveraging technology, business process and innovation in order to change the dynamics of the derivatives industry.  Significant market developments open the door for clients to expand their business and gain market share.  With an in-depth understanding of the products, industry and the market leading platforms, ATI is the partner of choice for your firm.
