2020 was a year unlike any other. Despite our worst fears, many organizations were able to respond quickly and deal with change. In some cases, we managed to improve business communications despite the demise of the traditional office setting. To illustrate these points, Glue42 gathered insights from renowned fintech experts.
Here’s what our CAO, Brian Hunt had to say:
“Over the last 12 months, we’ve seen a major shift across the institutional trading landscape as traders were forced off the traditional trading floor and into remote working conditions. While the pandemic has been a catalyst, it was not the sole driver of this structural shift. Voice trading and mobility remain prominent factors in the institutional trading ecosystem but they must be supported by secure and reliable cloud infrastructure in order to access the ‘virtual trading floor’ that is quickly becoming the new normal.
Many firms realized at the outset of the pandemic that they lacked the resources to adequately capture voice data because they had been relying heavily on antiquated technology. Cloud9 quickly stepped in with our cloud-based voice communication APIs to ensure greater flexibility and interoperability, regardless of where they were located, ultimately leading to a 50% increase in our business.
In an industry that’s becoming increasingly digitized, productivity should not be impacted. In fact, we’ve learned that firms can even elevate efficiency by leveraging the right resources, from front-office trading software to regulatory and compliance solutions. We expect that trend to continue this year but it starts with creating a more nimble, cloud-based environment for individuals on and off the trading floor.”
