How Catalyst works

OVERVIEW

Catalyst allows traders to enter deals the moment they’re agreed with brokers. Complex voice-confirmed trades can be entered in seconds using Catalyst’s fast, customisable blotter.

Trades are then automatically reconciled with exchange feeds from the trading venue once they’re reported for clearing. This ensures traders see their true positions immediately while maintaining consistency with exchange records.

Real time trade reconciliation

Catalyst’s trade matching engine continuously reconciles broker trades with exchange data. When exchange confirmations arrive, Catalyst instantly verifies they match the broker trade, even when trades contain multiple fills.

Handling complex fills is a core strength of Catalyst. No matter the number or breakdown of fills, the system reconciles trades instantly. Mini contracts against full size, strips broken down by period or quantities split by counterparty are all matched automatically as long as the exposure, PnL impact and broker trade reconcile.

Unparalleled performance

Unparalleled performance

Reconciling a single trade against 24 exchange fills takes less than 50 milliseconds.

This provides:

- Immediate visibility of positions
- Accurate exposure calculations
- Early detection of discrepancies

You always know your position as soon as a broker trade is agreed. By removing delays, Catalyst allows trading desks to operate more efficiently without relying on spreadsheets or manual reconciliation.
