FFastFill designs and delivers application services for the electronic trading community. These services and solutions use the latest developments in technology to automate trade flow processes across a firm's front, middle and back offices. FFastFill's solutions encompass electronic order routing, clearing, risk management and back office as part of an integrated, yet modular system architecture. FFastFill's application services provide institutions with cost savings in their administrative and IT departments and significantly reduce or eliminate the investment costs associated with maintaining their own technology infrastructure. All FFastFill's services are delivered against a contracted Service Level Agreement (SLA) that can be tailored to the institution’s business requirements. This quality of delivered service has been enabled through the deployment of a uniquely engineered and totally managed software and technology infrastructure. FFastFill provides these services from specialist operational centres in London and Chicago and a software development centre in Prague.
FFastFill recently acquired Exchange Systems Technology Ltd a company supplying back office (Post-trade Processing) systems to the financial markets.
FFastFill is leading the way in providing such high quality services to the electronic trading community. It is achieving this by: - Engineering a completely new software, hardware and network architecture which can sustain levels of performance and availability not previously achievable
- Managing the service through combining a world-class team of people experienced in operating complex service platforms with a sophisticated service management system built around some of the latest technologies
- Delivering a successful trading experience to its customers by providing the flexibility to integrate FFastFill's own market-leading service with specialist capability from complementary suppliers to provide our clients with a tailored solution to their unique requirements
