We are very excited to be working with OpenFin to build our Derived Data application on the OpenFin OS. The speed of development, the ease of integration into existing desktop environments and the interoperability with other applications is a very powerful combination. It means that our customers can quickly and easily access the most granular data and analytics they need, delivered directly into their trading systems, at speed and scale, while enhancing their existing workflows.
