Change in good hands

Especially the financial sector is challenged by progressive digitalization and the need to adapt to competetive market conditions whilst remaining compliant to increasing regulatory requirements.

IB-IT offers consulting services that focus on your strategic IT orientation. Our professionals will analyse your business processes, optimization potential and support your projects with relevant expertise and experience in managing, changing and running complex IT infrastructures.

CHANGE THE BUSINESS

IT processes in the financial industries need to be flexible and at the same time stable and reliable. As a result all strategic changes need to be thoroughly defined, planned and implemented without taking any risks impacting the day-to-day business.

Therefore a mature concept needs to be created based on the business analysis of all relevant processes (up- and downstram / internal external). In addition a solid program / project management needs to be set up in order to remain overview about all activities. Furthermore it´s required to set up reporting lines to keep all involved stakeholders informed about progress and potential risks.

Our core expertise is to analyse, plan and realise projects in these sensitive environments. Our consultants are professionals with many years of hands-on experience in financial business processes in combination to in-depth know-how of special IT-system structures, applications and business processes from Frontoffice to Backoffice, Trading, Risk & Liquidity Management, Reporting, Accounting and Market Data Supply.

  • Pre- and post-trade processes
  • Front to back office process
  • Risk Management
  • Settlement / Transaction Processing and Inventory Management
  • Management of financial instruments
  • Compliance (Regulatory)
  • Investment and fund accounting

TRADING ENVIRONMENT

Our consulting services are mainly sourced from the trading environment of major banks, fund management companies or insurance companies – the experienced IB IT consultants cover the required skill sets in the field of trading, risk and market data systems with pleasingly broad overlapping fields and thus guarantee a holistic approach and broadly conceived solution approach.

Another core area of our consulting activities are regulatory issues as well as all topics related to reporting. We support our clients in the analysis, the selection of forward-looking technologies, conception and the implementation of all processes.

MARKET DATA MANAGEMENT

Market data is an important basis for successful trading and is essential for financial institutions. Supplying fresh financial market information is a sensitive area where safety, integrity and speed are key. Another important aspect is the compliant use of data. Frequent problems arise through the use of data that is in breach of contract and that, for example, is automatically processed and passed on. In the worst case, you may face sensitive fines from market data providers.

Our expertise covers all functional and technical aspects of market data management. We help to integrate new market data providers via data feeds, proprietary client software or as a data warehouse solution. We analyze your data situation and check for compliance with rules in order to prevent misuse of financial information.

Technical infrastructure

IT can’t get more complex than Infrastructures in the financial industry – Stability, integrity, performance and absolutely no tolerance for mistakes. You´ll have the chance to view forward looking cutting edge technologies. The tasks are exciting and require the same amount of skill and expertise.

In this area we successfully completed projects of all kinds of dimensions, and could gather valuable experience in dealing with these sensitive systems. Our focuses lie in the functional handling of trading, settlement and market data systems as well as in the technical integration into global system architectures.

The above mentioned systems require a lively exchange of data. The communication with each other is as important as external connections to, for example, market data providers, settlement systems, clearing houses or stock exchanges.

We have experience in all major asset classes from Fixed Income to Equity to Credit, FX and Commodity.
