What Modern Fixed Income Trading Desks Actually Need
Findings from IMTC’s inaugural Trading & OMS Report on how portfolio managers, traders, and operations teams are rebuilding their infrastructure for the way fixed income actually works today.
Personalize fixed income accounts at scale
Deliver custom bond portfolios to high-net-worth individuals without manual, time-consuming processes.
Do you struggle to manage hundreds of bond accounts using spreadsheets?
Managing individual bond accounts, blended portfolios, and UMAs has become increasingly tedious, prohibiting the ability to tailor portfolios or scale growth. Using a combination of legacy platforms, custodial platforms and spreadsheets to make decisions is slow and prone to errors.
IMTC can help if you’re having difficulties with:
Managing cash and cashflows
Identifying accounts in need of attention due to cash requests or deposits, performing maintenance trades, and determining optimal investments is time-consuming across all accounts.
Allocating across accounts
Determining accounts and quantities in which to allocate bonds is a manual workflow that lacks an equitable and repeatable process.
Adhering to investment guidelines
Maintaining strategies, targets, models, unique requests, and more is a challenge with the number of accounts, particularly if rules are managed in a spreadsheet.
Automating post-trade processes
Communicating trades to the appropriate parties (brokers, custodians, etc.) is a pain due to the lack of straight-through-processing.

- Invest excess cash or raise cash across accounts in need
- Access decision support tools that keep you in line with portfolio strategy
