Brokers and Trading

Industry Expertise

In the Broking Industry the key objective of any information system should be to deliver the right information - to the right people - at the right time. In this way, an institution is able to increase its profitability by controlling costs, increasing revenue and controlling risk. However, with budgets being tight and with the continuing economic uncertainty, companies that invest wisely in systems that also add value to their business will find that they can respond more quickly to the changing business climate - and can ultimately reap the rewards of more a responsive back office operation.

In addition, and as more brokers start to increase their global presence, so the regulatory environment tightens. In the international markets, the International Accounting Standards (IAS) and the Basel Capital Accord (Basel II) are creating an urgent need to adapt business processes and IT systems to satisfy stringent requirements.

Integration Systems

In order to become more responsive to the needs of both the market and it’s customers, many broking organisations find it necessary to enhance financial data by improving integration and straight through processing with fund management and settlement systems.  This helps to refine cost reporting and analysis abilities, improve the strategic planning process and reduce the reliance on spreadsheets for management reporting, budgeting and forecasting.  To help do this, Sapphire offer a range of integration modules which are supplied out of a box, and enable scheduling of a range of data transfers between SunSystems and other applications within the business.
