For our customer Dreyfus Sons & Co Ltd, Banquiers, we have extended the existing connection in our trading system MAX, enabling the private bank the automatic trading of Exchange-Traded Derivatives (ETDs). The orders received in MAX are routed to our partner broker, with execution being fully automated back into the core banking system. Our customer has been using the solution successfully since the end of February.
ETD trading with MAX can be implemented with a broker of your choice and offers a number of advantages, including a reduction in your workload thanks to the high degree of automation.
We have successfully implemented a connection of Berner Kantonalbank AG to the Routing Hub of ESPRIT Netzwerk AG for trading ETDs and OTC-X instruments. Four member banks of Esprit Netzwerk are already live and successfully using the connection for their trading.
We have successfully implemented a connection to our partner ifsam for our customer Dreyfus Sons & Co Ltd, Banquiers end of July. The bank can now process fund orders automatically for its customers via ifsam's platform.
Our MACD Conference took place again in Zurich on 6 June 2024. Around 90 people from more than 35 financial institutions from our community took part. Current and important topics were discussed, including sustainability in the financial sector, the advantages and disadvantages of cross-asset class trading systems and self-regulation.
It's Pride Month again! At MACD, we set an example against discrimination, which is why our company logo on the website once again shines in rainbow colors, symbolic of greater tolerance and diversity.
