Executive Peer Roundtable Cross-Asset Series - Part 1 Broker dealers have been working hard to break down walls, to create a less siloed environment where traders trade not just one product, but many from one trading workstation. This is a lofty goal as traders must have access to trading platforms that can handle connectivity to a multitude of marketplaces, execution of all products, credit exposure, firm-wide risk management, multi-product algorithms and links to settlement and record keeping for all products. Hedge funds and other tech savvy buy-side firms are also dabbling in multi- asset trading. Often leaner shops, they need one platform that can do it all. Critical to any multi-asset trading desk is using algorithms that can trade multiple asset classes in the same strategy. This discussion will bring together traders and technology execs from the buy & sell side to discuss the challenges of cross-asset trading.

The buy side needs more than just an order management system, which is why many OMSs are investing in EMSs to offer the full package. Participants in this peer group will share their experiences, including the challenges of existing OMSs and EMSs, the pros and cons of having an all-in-one system and what they’d like to see as far as future developments in the space.
