Recorded Webinar: Enhancing Buy-Side Trading Efficiency: Navigating Interoperability and AI in Real Workflows

26 June 2024

Enhancing Buy-Side Trading Efficiency: Navigating Interoperability and AI in Real Workflows Emerging capabilities in AI and interoperability are transforming trading workflows, with the promise of heightened levels of collaboration and personalisation resulting in greater efficiency and performance. The potential of these new technologies is encouraging financial firms to modernise their trader desktops and streamline operational processes.

With AI and Generative AI (GenAI) in particular still nascent in their application to financial markets, traders at asset management firms are especially skittish about their role in portfolio analysis and trade decision making. But by adopting interoperability as a mantra and deploying AI to smooth information flows, buy-side trading teams are ushering in a new era of openness and personalisation, resulting in compelling outcomes.

This webinar:

  • Examines the tangible impact of interoperability on trading workflows
  • Offers examples and guidance on where AI can be deployed to create more value from trader desktops
  • Identifies the specific needs of buy-side traders
  • Explores crucial challenges facing practitioners, including fragmented systems, data discovery hurdles, and the complexity of traditional user interfaces.
  • Uses real-world scenarios to illustrate how interoperability and AI serve as catalysts, driving enhanced productivity and performance.
