LONDON / NEW YORK / SYDNEY / HONG KONG – Cassini Systems, the leading provider of pre- and post-trade margin and collateral analytics for derivatives market participants, has been recognized as the Derivatives Technology Provider of the Year by the 2022 GlobalCapital Global and Americas Derivatives awards.

These awards celebrate growth, innovation, and those who go above and beyond within the derivatives industry. To ensure the best fit for each category, the judges conducted interviews with all nominated parties. At the conclusion of this exhaustive process, it was determined that Cassini Systems is the pre-eminent global derivatives technology provider.

We are currently experiencing extreme volatility in the global economy. Understanding derivatives costs at pre-trade and over the total lifecycle of the trade helps companies to mitigate the risk of inadvertently carrying insufficient collateral. Cassini’s unique platform, which accounts for Initial Margin (IM), cash buffers, eligible collateral and funding costs, and enables firms to understand their true cost of trade to ensure best execution, is truly an innovative offering with the potential to bolster company profits even in the face of market instability.

As new clearing mandates and UMR phases have come into effect, Cassini’s platform has played an integral role in giving firms the ability to comply with the regulations and maintain a low level of IM. This, in turn, provides companies with the leverage they need to capitalize on the opportunities that turbulent markets present, rather than deleverage and sell assets. This award recognizes Cassini’s position as the only provider of real-time pre-and post-trade margin analytics for derivatives markets.

Liam Huxley, founder and CEO of Cassini: “Companies today must ensure they have proper operational controls and technology, without which they would succumb to market volatility. Cassini helps firms lower the cost of trading derivatives, priming them for success no matter the market conditions. We are continually innovating our solutions that directly help and support our global client base and because of this, we have now become a key technology in their daily workflow.”

This award win underscores Cassini’s unmatched contributions to the derivatives trading market. As more companies seek to optimize and lower the cost of trading derivatives due to global volatility and increasing regulations, Cassini has quickly become the leading source for high-quality pre-and post-trade margin analytics software.
