Did You Know?
Caspian One partnered with a Canadian financial institution to develop cutting-edge trading systems for Ecommodities, delivering a tradable UI, enhanced OMS entitlement validation, and upgraded KDB adaptors for real-time analytics - significantly improving trading capabilities and operational efficiency.
This scenario demonstrates Caspian One's ability to rapidly deploy specialised teams for complex trading system projects, ensuring seamless integration, enhanced trading capabilities, and operational efficiency through strategic planning and stakeholder engagement.
The Challenge
A leading Canadian financial institution faced the challenge of modernising its Ecommodities trading systems to improve performance, efficiency, and integration across its trading infrastructure. Their existing Order Management System (OMS) required enhanced entitlement validation, while real-time analytics and trade execution monitoring needed optimisation. Additionally, performance bottlenecks in their strategy containers and pricing architecture were limiting trading speed and flexibility.
Given the complexity of high-frequency trading, every system enhancement had to be low-latency, scalable, and seamlessly integrated within the existing trading framework. The institution needed a partner capable of providing specialised expertise, rapid execution, and structured project governance to ensure a successful transformation.
Our Approach
Caspian One deployed a specialist trading technology team to deliver a comprehensive overhaul of the institution’s Ecommodities trading platform. This remote, structured project focused on developing key trading system components, ensuring enhanced execution, real-time analytics, and seamless integration across trading operations.
Over the course of a year, our team delivered:
A tradable Passive Sniper Strategy UI, enabling enhanced execution capabilities
A Single Asset Gamma Hedger Strategy, improving risk management
Enhanced OMS entitlement validation, strengthening system security and control
Performance monitoring improvements for TradeExecutionContainer, increasing system stability
Optimised strategy container disruptor performance, reducing latency and improving execution speed
Upgraded KDB adaptors, enhancing real-time analytics and data processing
The design and development of the institution’s Pricing Farm Structure, ensuring greater efficiency in pricing and execution strategies
Throughout the project, Caspian One provided strategic oversight and stakeholder engagement, ensuring that each milestone aligned with the institution’s broader trading objectives and regulatory requirements.
The Outcome
Within 12 months, the institution had successfully integrated a next-generation trading system that significantly improved execution performance, real-time analytics, and risk management capabilities.
With a more efficient, scalable infrastructure, they could now execute trades faster, monitor market conditions more effectively, and optimise pricing strategies with greater precision.
What This Meant for the Client:
This transformation positioned the institution for long-term success in commodities trading, allowing them to operate more efficiently, mitigate risks, and respond to market dynamics with greater agility.
By upgrading their trading infrastructure and analytics capabilities, they gained a competitive edge in the global financial market, ensuring better outcomes for investors and continued growth in a high-stakes trading environment.
