Finflow Grid:

Tool-Kit for development

 

  • Allows rapid development of resilient processes, using Finflow’s proprietary development framework
  • Allows communication between processes (ranging from simple algo calculations to trade execution) and a user, via Excel or a bespoke GUI
  • While Excel is used as an interface, all data persists on an integrated SQL database, and processing times are not held back by Excel’s performance
