The Cassini Advantage

The flexibility of the Cassini platform can enhance many parts of the trading lifecycle. Some typical ways firms benefit from Cassini are:

What-If Margin

Know your margin impact before trade execution and compare different broker/clearing venue choices to reduce margin requirement.

Best Execution

Best Execution means including the cost of carry when comparing quotes. Cassini provides Lifetime Cost Analysis (LCA) to support your trade execution decisions.

Trade Rules Compliance

Ensure your compliance with clearing mandates and also on or off venue execution for US & Europe (MAT or TOTV rules).

Collateral Cost Attribution

Attributing margin and cost of collateral back to trading books to provide accurate reporting on capital utilization.

Collateral Optimization

Our sophisticated collateral allocation engine can ensure most efficient use of collateral at end of day. Portfolio rebalancing risk analytics can also reduce portfolio margin requirements.

Counterparty Limits

An integrated process for Pre and Post Trade to ensure you comply with clearing agreement limits, and also manage your wallet share allocations, is important when using multiple counterparties.

Who's it for

Cassini is designed for the buy-side clients of derivative trades, both OTC and ETD. Cassini is primarily used by the front office to analyse a trade before execution but also provides benefits and tools for the middle and back office.

Portfolio Managers

Portfolio Managers and front office are the primary users of Cassini. They will set up proposed trades in Cassini blotters and then run analytics to review the whole lifetime transaction cost, and identify best clearing routes and cheapest available trades.

Risk/Compliance Managers

Risk and compliance managers use Cassini to ensure that all executed and proposed trades stay within limits defined in clearing agreements, regulations, or internal controls.

Collateral Managers

Collateral managers can use Cassini to monitor potential collateral shortfalls intra-day or even to take the Cassini cheapest to deliver recommendations and put them into the end of day collateral workflow.
