the IT systems development and extensive knowledge of the capitals markets. We believe that combining technology and trading transfers both to a new level.

We see that trading solutions developed by financial institutions allowed them to move ahead of the competition. With time, those investments in software infrastructure created a gap that is now quite expensive to offset by competitor. As a part of those solutions proprietary trading algorithms became a strategic asset of these companies.

Behind any algorithm there are exact figures such as lower costs of transactions when compared to traditional methods. There is no place for embellishment of reality using sophisticated sales and marketing techniques as the effects of algorithms are measurable and quantifiable. Algorithms and technology offer possibilities unattainable by traditional transaction methods. Real-time processing of large amounts of data from various markets and dependency checking based on quantitative models, allow for rapid detection of emerging opportunities and for their use before they can be noticed by other market players.
