The new service will allow asset management firms to stage trades between SunGard’s ‘Decalog’ portfolio and trade-order management system and TradingScreen’s trading platform.

It will provide access to critical market information such as IOIs and pre-trade analytics, execution capabilities including direct market access, strategy building, trade management and best execution reporting, as well as the existing functionality of both systems.

SunGard says that asset management firms are now looking to improve their trading processes by integrating pre-trade analysis, strategy management, access to algorithms, multi-asset class capabilities and global connectivity into a single system.

This new integrated offering gives buy-side traders tools to help meet new regulatory and market challenges, said Philippe Buhannic, chairman and CEO of TradingScreen.
