LIQUIDITY CUBE
OUR STORY
Started at Manly beach on a walk around the cliffs at Fairy Bower in 2016, Liquidity Cube or “The Cube” was created to bring simplicity and transparency to trade execution for the rates market. Our goal was to create an alternative to the market incumbents like Bloomberg and Tradeweb at a fraction of the cost with the technological smarts that had taken other industries to new levels.
It hasn’t been easy, it probably never is, and it still isn’t but… nearly 10 years later we find ourselves with cutting edge rates trading technology, market makers across Australia, the UK, Europe and North America and the ongoing aim to really bring real efficiency and transparency to fixed income trading across the globe.
OUR VISION
Trading and execution should be simple, efficient and secure. The Cube gives portfolio managers, dealers and traders more time to actively manage their portfolio, service clients and make informed trading decisions.
All the “smarts”, all the AI, the machine learning and the analytics aren’t there for us to look smart, they are there to make execution simple.
That’s our vision… simple execution, smart decisions.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
Hosted on a secure AWS cloud environment, the Cube offers a low touch off-premise solution where clients data security is paramount whilst harnessing the access and scalability of high availability API and FIX connectivity for tradeflow and market data feeds.
Liquidity Cube offers a browser-based web application or direct API/FIX tradeflow allowing flexibility and direct integration into your own pricing and order management systems dependent on your organization’s requirements.
THE SOLUTION
01
INTEGRATED PLATFORM
Integrated to give you full STP processing, both internally and externally, be it with your portfolio management system, IBOR or your external confirmation and clearing processes. The Cube has partnered with market-leading technology and service providers like Markitwire to make your activity seamless, secure and in one place.
02
PARTICIPANT AGNOSTIC
Participants are either originators or receivers of liquidity, not just buy-side or sell-side. This facilitates interchangeable client-to-bank and interbank execution on the same platform. So, whether you’re a fund manager, asset manager, asset owner, bank, hedge fund or IDB, all your counterparty activity is covered on one platform, in real-time.
03
FULL OTC COVERAGE
Coverage across the full spectrum of OTC instruments and multi-leg structures: Bonds, Swaps, CDS/X, Money market, FX, Repo, Swaptions.
Easily created as outrights or combined as multi-leg structures including EFP, spreads, switches or any user-defined structure.
04
RICH DATA ANALYTICS
An Execution Information System that combines seamless workflow with market intelligence and analytics to generate not just execution, but best execution. Not only combining pre & post trade analysis on both a participant’s own activity but also global trade activity, The Cube provides full traceability across the execution life-cycle, counterparty interaction, price depth, market liquidity and global market flow.
05
FLEXIBLE EXECUTION
Flexible workflow across varied execution paths and organisations. Execution paths such as RFQ, Order, Click-to-trade & Axe are combined with flexible data dissemination to allow market sensitive information to be controlled and released as execution is firmed up. Execute the way you want to electronically but retain the freedom around who sees what and when.
06
RISK-FACTOR APPROACH
Flexible execution via the generation of alternative execution strategies using risk-orientated analytics & machine learning. Execute your risk strategy instead of an instrument-level strategy by using the underlying risk factors of your trading strategy to find alternative ways to execute and to better pinpoint liquidity, reduces costs and perform best execution.
