What We Do
We facilitate innovation
- “brain-storming” use of technology for gaining an edge in both trade ideas and automating underlying operational workflow
- building “user-friendly” databases to assemble information in a systematic way for eventual ease of access
- engaging prospective investors with channels to monitor “forward testing” of trade signals, following on from back-testing
We offer interim IT assistance
- helping the fund quickly, launch a new business initiative, and allow subsequent hand-over back to internal operations
- providing “in-house” training on specific areas requiring our expertise
We harness emerging technology
- guiding when to use and not to use machine learning, and if appropriate, how to apply using our technology or an alternative vendor
- clarifying what there is to know about cryptocurrencies – the opportunities & risks
- discussing blockchaining now and the near future, together with its likely impact
- analysing direct trading opportunities from emerging technology providing detailed analysis of a tech company’s offerings, for investment portfolios
We identify economies in IT expenditure
- reviewing existing use and expenditure on IT, and producing recommended economies, backed up by making industry benchmarks available
- implementing our findings, if invited
