Northern Trust has reported a clientele increase of more than 50 per cent for its integrated trading solutions business over the past three years, the company says, with more than 90 clients now using the service.
The firm’s outsourced trading offering provides clients with expertise on equities and fixed income, exchange traded derivatives and exchange traded funds. The service is available across trading locations, giving firms access to high-quality liquidity and integrated middle- and back-office capabilities.
Risk and cost are reduced through the use of this platform, Northern Trust says, allowing asset owners and managers to improve their transparency and operational efficiency while complying with regulations.
Glenn Poulter, global head of brokerage at Northern Trust, comments: “The growth of our integrated trading solutions business is a testament to our team’s dedication to helping Northern Trust Capital Markets clients solve their challenges across the trading spectrum.
“Achieving alpha is more difficult than ever before, and by outsourcing their trading function, clients can focus on investment decisions that deliver meaningful results.”
