GLMX Technologies and FlexTrade Systems have collaborated to allow their mutual clients to seamlessly manage their repo workflow and execution between the GLMX platform and FlexTrade’s Order and Execution Management (O/EMS) solutions suite.
The first mover, a global asset manager, is already live and in production using the combined functionality between GLMX and FlexTrade’s FlexONE OEMS, with a second client, an APAC-based hedge fund, set to go live in Q1 2025.
GLMX’s technology platform enables global financial market participants to negotiate and execute securities financing transactions and is used by over 140 buy- and sell-side institutions worldwide. GLMX’s new initiative with FlexTrade’s FlexONE OEMS and FlexTRADER EMS provides mutual clients with a comprehensive solution for managing the entire trade lifecycle–from order execution to post-trade compliance and reporting.
As a result of the collaboration, FlexTrade and GLMX’s mutual clients can now gain greater control and efficiency through customizable and shared pre- and post-trade workflows. The newly created workflows allow trading teams to automate complex order routing and allocation strategies, minimize manual errors, and ensure adherence to regulatory requirements.
“Client demand for cross-market efficiency is a primary driver for GLMX to deliver new technologies and connectivity,” said Andy Wiblin, chief operating officer at GLMX, ini a statement. “By partnering with FlexTrade, we aim to support our clients’ trading, risk management, and operational resilience efforts globally.”
Satish Ramanath, senior vice president for Buy-Side, APAC at FlexTrade Systems, said in a statement: “We’re delighted to make our new integration to the GLMX platform available for FlexTrade’s global asset management and hedge fund community. Working together with GLMX, we’ve provided our clients with a seamless and efficient means of accessing differentiated liquidity within their existing workflows.”
