Fixed-income workflows
Support the way trading, sales and operations teams handle instruments, orders and distribution.
ABOUT FTLABS
Fixed-income technology built for how firms actually operate.
FTLabs builds fixed-income technology for firms that need to modernize without starting over. Established in 2005, the company brings decades of experience building, connecting and evolving the systems that support fixed-income trading and distribution.
DEEP FIXED-INCOME EXPERIENCE
Built through every generation of fixed-income technology.
The three FTLabs principals were building fixed-income technology before the company was established in 2005. Their experience spans faxed and printed bond listings, electronic aggregation and increasingly connected trading workflows, through to today’s data-driven, automated and AI-enabled technology environment.
That continuity brings a practical understanding of what changes, what persists and what firms need to modernize successfully. Financial Technology Laboratories combines that experience with a focus on the workflows taking shape today.
PURPOSE-BUILT
Fixed income is not an adaptation. It is the foundation.
Fragmented liquidity, diverse instruments and firm-specific processes shape how fixed-income teams work. FTLabs builds around those realities, connecting trading and distribution requirements with the data and systems that support them.
Market connectivity
Connect multiple venues, counterparties and providers across an established technology environment.
Data and analytics
Bring market information and analytical capabilities into data-intensive workflows.
Firm-specific controls
Accommodate the rules, processes and integration requirements that differ from firm to firm.
PRACTICAL MODERNIZATION
Modernize what matters. Keep what works.
Fixed-income firms depend on established systems, data providers and internal workflows. FTLabs can connect and extend that environment, helping firms introduce capabilities progressively while preserving technology that continues to serve them well.
FTLabs can coexist with Bloomberg and integrate with existing market data, pricing, clearing, risk, spreadsheet and downstream systems. Firms do not have to remove Bloomberg or rebuild their entire environment to introduce FTLabs.
Connect what works
Integrate established systems, providers and workflows.
Simplify what doesn’t
Reduce unnecessary fragmentation, manual processes and integration burden.
Evolve without disruption
Introduce new capabilities progressively rather than forcing a rip-and-replace technology program.
BUILT FOR BUSINESS AND TECHNOLOGY TEAMS
Technology has to work for the people who use it — and the teams who manage it.
Successful fixed-income technology needs to support daily business decisions and the enterprise requirements behind them. FTLabs connects those perspectives across trading, sales, operations, data, integration and IT.
For business teams
Useful workflows, analytics, automation and access to market information help teams put technology to work in their daily processes.
For technology teams
Interoperability, configurable controls, security-minded architecture and integration flexibility support a manageable path to incremental modernization.
BUILT TO EVOLVE
A technology foundation designed to keep moving forward.
BondPUB, BondHUB, analytics, integrations and developer capabilities form a connected foundation that can evolve with the firm. New data sources, integrations and workflows can extend the environment without requiring it to be reinvented each time.
That foundation supports automation, developer extensibility, systematic workflows and AI-enabled capabilities as business and technology requirements develop.
Modernize what matters. Keep what works.
