Capital Markets
Modernise the systems and information that trading businesses depend on.
Overview
Trading platforms, position records and market information support decisions across the desk, risk, finance and operations.
Capmark helps capital markets businesses assess platform options, implement and integrate systems, and improve pricing and reference data.
We connect the technology estate with the business operating model, including market-data usage, licensing, migration and the interfaces between platforms.
What we do
Selection runs against your actual portfolio, volumes and operating model. Candidates are tested with your trades and workflows, and the result is a decision the desk, technology and operations all stand behind — with delivery planned from the start.
We deliver platform implementations and version upgrades against a live book: migration and cutover planned from day one, parallel run to prove results match, and the desk kept trading throughout. The same team stays from design through go-live.
Order, execution and portfolio management systems across asset classes — buyer-run platforms such as Murex and Calypso as well as in-house estates. We work on the estate as a whole, so overlaps and gaps between systems are resolved rather than worked around.
Market-data spend grows quietly as feeds, terminals and redistribution accumulate. We measure actual usage against entitlements and licensing terms, then rationalise and renegotiate on that evidence — keeping the data the desk actually uses and retiring what it does not.
Instrument, pricing and reference data feed every downstream system, and quality problems surface as breaks, misvaluations and manual fixes. We build the sourcing, ownership and quality controls so each attribute has one authoritative source and downstream systems inherit clean data.
Trading systems earn their keep when positions, prices and trades flow cleanly into risk, finance and operations. We design and build those integrations, and shape the target architecture so each change simplifies the estate over time.
What to expect
Platform work is planned around the trading calendar from the outset: selection against your actual book, a migration and cutover plan from day one, parallel run before anything is switched, and the desk kept trading throughout. The senior team that runs selection stays through implementation, and your own staff work inside the delivery team so the estate is run confidently after go-live.
The same senior team runs selection and stays through implementation, migration and cutover.
