High Technology
In the investment world the difference between profit and loss as technology has advanced is now measured in milliseconds. This dependence on technological performance requires a financial service organisations IT infrastructure to be fine tuned in the same way that an F1 racing car does. The use of co-location and algorithmic platforms have become increasingly popular mechanisms on which investment banks now trade intensively. Exagenica has strong experience of assisting financial institutions in leveraging powerfully performing technology to trade globally and surpass its competitors.

Business Intelligence
In the world of finance information is king and business intelligence is playing an ever increasing role in how financial services organisation do business. Disparate systems within a financial services organisation are all responsible for different roles and functions. However it is when the data across all these systems is made available in the form of a data warehouse that the true power of business intelligence is unleashed. Exagenica has helped many of its financial services clients to build powerful data warehouses which consolidate the data across their organisations and provide them with a robust platform on which reporting, analysis, risk management and decision making is made efficient and effective.
Regulatory Commitments
The political need for greater financial services regulation over the past few years has meant organisations are now required to provide regulators with considerably more information than before. This regulation is expected to increase in complexity and breadth and it has placed considerable pressure on financial services organisations in terms of both technology and business process. Whether its Basel 2 or 3 Exagenica’s skilled team of technologists and regulatory specialists can assist your organisation in constructing the necessary infrastructure and processes to remain compliant.
Mergers and Acquisitions
The financial landscape is continually changing through mergers, acquisitions and restructuring which with each event brings the need to implement large scale IT change. IT transformation in the Financial Services arena is an area in which Exagenica has considerable experience having successfully managed large scale infrastructure change programmes for a number of organisations. We provide financial services clients challenged with merging, restructuring or separating their IT infrastructure with the ability to delegate its management end to end to our team of transformation specialists.
