Advanced Technologies and Systems

Going STP
The purpose of the transition to Straight Through Processing ("STP") is to improve the speed and accuracy of processing orders, from order execution to input location, verification, confirmation of the trade to the customer and the final settlement process.

Newedge STP strategy: "from customer to customer"

Newedge offers STP services from equity and derivatives-listed business to OTC and FX transactions. We have built a state-of-the-art STP platform that boasts all the industry standards and allows our experienced customers to plug their own order management system, to follow and drive the whole execution, clearing and settlement process and to retrieve the processed data in their own back office system.
STP enables Newedge to offer additional value-added services such as cross margining and sophisticated risk analysis of customer portfolios
