Everything required to run fixed income execution as a single, accountable service, connectivity, cost, evidence, and coverage.

Deployment model

Outsourced or co-sourced.

Ediphy's deployment model is deliberately non-binary; adopting outsourced trading does not require an all-or-nothing commitment. Through our co-sourced execution framework, the platform operates flexibly alongside an established internal desk.

For buy-side firms with limited coverage or infrequent trading activity in specific niche markets, Ediphy's comparative advantage becomes a highly strategic asset. Desks can dynamically allocate specific order flows to Ediphy, leveraging deep liquidity access and specialised expertise exactly where internal resources are less optimal, rather than maintaining costly, underutilised internal capabilities.

Ways to deploy

  • 02 Co-sourced alongside your deskThe platform runs flexibly next to an established internal team.

Pre-trade intelligence

Capitalise on fleeting liquidity windows.

To navigate the structural challenges of fragmented fixed income markets, Ediphy incorporates sophisticated pre-trade analytics powered by Consolidated Tape (CT) trade data alongside our proprietary Liquidity Checker tool.

Operating natively within the web application, this data-driven toolkit continuously monitors global bond markets to provide actionable market intelligence. By combining historical CT trade data with real-time liquidity tracking, the platform actively notifies clients when targeted, less liquid instruments display favourable trading conditions, letting portfolio managers and execution desks capture liquidity windows that might otherwise be missed.
