Proprietary and program trading desks at major banks are under pressure to discover, develop, and execute winning strategies in very short intervals of time. And while a large stable of resources may be available, work must be done within rigid budgetary constraints and IT department standards.

ModelStation® provides Proprietary and Program traders with several key benefits:

• Turnkey integration with major data warehouses such as FactSet, Fame, ThomsonQA, and S&P Xpressfeed, dramatically reducing startup times
• Rapid strategy prototyping through factor analysis and simulation modules, giving traders a head-start in vetting new ideas
• Granular, real-world strategy simulation including short rebate handling, cost modeling, and daily trade by trade P&L reporting
• Team-based infrastructure ensuring seamless use and scalability - from a single user to an entire desk, or groups of desks
