JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global financial technology leader FIS^® today announced strategic advancements to the FIS Cross-Asset Trading and Risk Suite, a single platform poised to reshape how investment firms of all sizes compete when money is at work in today’s complex markets. The enhanced platform breaks down barriers that have long kept smaller firms from accessing the sophisticated trading tools used by global trading firms’ biggest players.

Investment firms are challenged by disconnected systems, manual processes and limited market access, especially smaller firms trying to compete with deep-pocketed competitors. The FIS Cross-Asset Trading and Risk Suite replaces the need for disparate systems with a single and flexible platform that delivers enhanced order, portfolio, position and risk management capabilities. It also delivers new SaaS capabilities specifically designed for alternative investments.

Its newly enhanced digitalized dashboards significantly improve the user experience, while providing innovative AI tools to help optimize the user experience and drive operational efficiency. The platform's expanded capabilities now seamlessly support both public and private market strategies on the buy side, enabling firms of all sizes to implement sophisticated cross-asset approaches that were previously accessible only to the largest market participants.

Matt Stauffer, Head of Trading and Asset Services at FIS said: “Markets are more complex than ever and buy-side firms need cross-asset strategies to find returns. But legacy systems and manual processes are holding them back. We're eliminating those barriers, helping firms of all sizes put their capital to work more effectively."
