Without a doubt, the financial services industry is one of the most competitive industries in the world today. Presently, security dealers and brokerage firms still face this fierce competition armed with an array of outdated legacy systems or in-house software programs that hopefully will provide them with the winning advantage over their competitors.

Traditionally, security dealers and brokerage firms are very profitable during peak trading periods. Whether it’s a bear or bull market, bottom-line costs are somewhat neglected during these rewarding times. Historically, austerity and retraction is conducted only during low market periods when trading and activity levels are at their lowest. At this moment, overall operating costs are reviewed and consequently, this is when UNIBANX’s performance is at its best.

UNIBANX not only delivers during peak periods, with its cutting edge, real-time software and processes, but it also delivers them inexpensively, which further contributes to the bottom line of these firms, during good times and bad. There is no impact on trading volumes and activity when using UNIBANX. Trade cost management of internal processes remains static, so whether you process 200 or 20,000 trades per month there is NO additional cost that will affect your bottom line.

The front, middle, and back office staff can access and process clear, readily accessible, real-time information in a straight through processing environment that is secure and cost effective. This allows firms to conduct their business and manage trading volumes with minimal personnel. Straight through processing and other timesaving processes found in UNIBANX contribute to this success.

UNIBANX can be used as a thin client application, which means that it can be easily interfaced with full-back office mainframes such as ISM or Datafile found in Canada or elsewhere. It offers a modular approach to features such as risk, treasury, and portfolio management and a complete double entry accounting system. UNIBANX also offers links to third party vendors namely Bloomberg, and other brokerage or custodial banking institutions. Most impressively, UNIBANX offers partnership development programs so that clients can customize or develop products specific to their needs.
