Hedge Funds Prefer Bloomberg and BNY ConvergEx OMS

Technology remains a priority for hedge funds, according to an IT study conducted by Eze Castle Integration.

Eze Castle Integration, the provider of IT services and consulting to hedge funds, released its 2011 Hedge Fund Operations & Technology Benchmark Study of more than 220 hedge funds and alternative investment firms.

The combination of preparing for regulations and the demand for greater investor transparency is resulting in a strong focus on deploying and optimizing technology to manage, protect and more effectively use data, from the front to back office.

Market Data: The vast majority of firms use Bloomberg for their market data, however Thomson Reuters continues to be a significant player in the market.

 

Market Analytics: Forty-three percent of firms use multiple vendors for market analytics. The most popular combinations were Bloomberg with Capital IQ and Bloomberg with Thomson Reuters.

 

OMS/EMS: BNY ConvergEx's Eze OMS was the most widely used system among respondents.

 

Middle and back office operations are being more closely scrutinized as investors expect sound operational practices that minimize investment and headline risks.

 

Additionally, the Dodd-Frank Act is contributing to back office technology adoption of email and instant message archiving.

 

Additional findings include:

 

Portfolio Accounting: Advent is the most popular vendor among survey respondents, however it is a diverse market with multiple other vendors cited.

 

Risk Management: Respondents use a broad spectrum of vendor solutions while 19 percent cited using either Microsoft Excel or a proprietary in-house system.

 

Mobile Devices: BlackBerry is used by 95 percent of respondents; however, signs point to an increase in iPhones, iPads and other tablets in the future.

 

Instant Messaging: AOL Instant Messenger is used by 76 percent of respondents, however many use it in addition to other IM platforms including Bloomberg Messaging or Yahoo Messenger.

 

Study Demographics Of 223 total firms who responded, 56 percent had assets under management (AUM) less than $250 million. Seventeen percent of respondents had an AUM of between $250-750 million at the time of the survey, and 27 percent had more than $750 million in assets. Other demographic information includes:

 

The majority of firms have one office location, which is in the United States. Only about one fourth of firms have an international office and/or multiple office locations.

 

Thirty-five percent of firms use a multi-strategy approach; of those firms, more than half said they trade Long/Short Equity as part of their strategy set.

 

There was little to no variance between primary and secondary prime brokers, with Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan and Credit Suisse maintaining a stronghold over the majority of firms.

回答: 金融市场和监管是密切相关的。在金融市场中,各种金融工具和交易活动都需要受到监管机构的监管。监管的目的是确保金融市场的稳定和公平,并保护投资者的利益。 金融市场的监管涉及多个方面,其中包括对金融机构的监管和对金融产品的监管。金融机构的监管包括对银行、证券公司、保险公司等金融机构的监管,以确保它们的运营符合法律法规,并且能够承担风险。金融产品的监管包括对衍生品、证券、债券等金融产品的监管,以确保它们的发行和交易符合规定,并且能够提供透明度和流动性。 监管机构在金融市场中扮演着重要的角色。它们负责制定和执行监管规则,监督金融机构的运营和交易活动,并对违规行为进行处罚。监管机构还负责评估金融市场的风险,并采取相应的措施来维护金融稳定。 在金融市场中,风险管理也是一个重要的方面。金融机构和投资者需要采取措施来管理和控制风险,以确保他们的投资安全。风险管理包括对市场风险、信用风险、操作风险等进行评估和控制。监管机构也会制定相关的规则和政策,要求金融机构和投资者采取适当的风险管理措施。 总之,金融市场和监管是相互关联的。监管机构的存在和监管规则的实施,有助于维护金融市场的稳定和公平,保护投资者的利益,并促进金融市场的发展。同时,金融机构和投资者也需要积极参与风险管理,以确保他们的投资安全和可持续发展。 #### 引用[.reference_title] - *1* [Risk Management and Financial Institution Chapter 4 —— Mutual Funds, ETFs, and Hedge Funds](https://blog.csdn.net/weixin_44617258/article/details/88972169)[target="_blank" data-report-click={"spm":"1018.2226.3001.9630","extra":{"utm_source":"vip_chatgpt_common_search_pc_result","utm_medium":"distribute.pc_search_result.none-task-cask-2~all~insert_cask~default-1-null.142^v91^insertT0,239^v3^insert_chatgpt"}} ] [.reference_item] - *2* *3* [Risk Management and Financial Institution Chapter 17 —— Regulation of the OTC Derivatives Market](https://blog.csdn.net/weixin_44617258/article/details/89496597)[target="_blank" data-report-click={"spm":"1018.2226.3001.9630","extra":{"utm_source":"vip_chatgpt_common_search_pc_result","utm_medium":"distribute.pc_search_result.none-task-cask-2~all~insert_cask~default-1-null.142^v91^insertT0,239^v3^insert_chatgpt"}} ] [.reference_item] [ .reference_list ]
