outsourced trading

TORA for outsourced trading

Our outsourced trading offering has the flexibility to integrate with your existing systems, or we can provide an end-to-end operational solution to cover the entire life-cycle of a trade.

Our models

We keep the primary relationship between client and broker intact. As a broker-agnostic service provider, our objectives are aligned with those of our clients, allowing us to provide unconflicted global execution.

Pass-through trading model

An extension of the internal dealing desk - we transact in the client’s name, with the same workflows and compliance controls as an in-house desk.

Agency trading model

An external dealing desk. We transact in our name on the client's behalf, a conduit process to access a broker panel with commission attribution.

Supported by our quantitative best execution team

Pre- and post-trade transaction cost analysis

QBE works to improve execution methodology utilising an algo ranking system built on a regression model using machine learning. Factors selected are significant and intuitive and real–time data is incorporated so that model recommendations reflect current market conditions.

A consultative approach is taken with our clients to incorporate specific trading styles and objectives.
