TLC:Broker

The Trading Life Cycle platform for the ambitious brokerage

Centralised, customised, secure

Efficient fast and effective, TLC:Broker streamlines and automates routine procedures for seasoned brokers whilst offering swift scalability for newcomers.

For three decades, we’ve worked with brokers to refine and transform trading front-end systems, downstream operations, and market data integration. TLC:Broker is a framework of customisable trading life cycle modules which Sinara uses as the foundation for delivering new broker systems.

Modules

TLC:Broker’s combined order management system and trading platform encompasses modules to quote, execute, process, and settle complex trades. It harnesses live market data and gives centralised real-time visibility of order status. It provides direct market access via exchange and integrates securely with other execution venues and CCPs. Permission-based access lets traders, account managers and customers view and track the status of open trades and allows clients to self-service to process straightforward orders.

How TLC:Broker revolutionised the way we do business

The client specialised in base metal futures and options trading, including participation in the LME market. In addition to futures, the client provides services such as warrant, bullion, and option trading. They wanted to transform their entire front-to-back trading technology suite to be able to boost efficiency, cut down manual and vendor risk, and prepare to expand into new business areas. Sinara delivered a TLC:Broker solution that comprehensively delivered on their needs.
