Matching & Allocation
(Middle Office)

Viewpoint is an order matching and allocation application that automates a firm's clearing process.

Whether trades are passed directly to a firm's back office or resubmitted to the exchange as a give-up, give-in or allocation, Viewpoint offers firms a strategic and efficient approach to managing trades as they are received from exchange clearing systems.

Viewpoint reduces manual intervention while allowing firms to process an increased number of trades.

Exchange connectivity includes: LIFFE, EUREX, CBOT, CME, CLEARING 21, NQLX, OM, IDEM, IPE, LCE, LTOM.

Key Benefits

Automation - Viewpoint's sophisticated rules engine matches clearing data against broker execution details and allocates trades automatically. Unmatched or unallocated trades are highlighted for user intervention.

Resource Efficiency - Viewpoint's exchange independent front-end provides firms with a consistent user interface regardless of exchange connectivity. This feature reduces the demand for human resources by allowing a single user to monitor multiple exchanges through a single interface.

Flexibility - Viewpoint easily integrates within a firm's existing infrastructure. Execution and clearing data can be received via third-party trading APIs, text files, exchange drivers and trade mapping details. For firms using Future Dynamics' trading front-end, Crossfire, trades seamlessly appear in the Viewpoint order book.
