CLIENT CHALLENGES
- The futures trading desk of a global investment bank required support to analyse the rolling index futures listed on the CME that identified trading opportunities, low-cost hedging strategies and index rolling strategies
- The entire analysis was performed manually using Excel; this consumed the team’s bandwidth
- The bank was looking to automate the process within its existing platform
OUR APPROACH
- Acuity deployed a team of financial engineers with a strong quantitative research background and expertise in advanced MS Office to conduct research and automate the spreadsheet process
- The team was supervised by subject-matter experts with experience in advanced MS Office solutions and futures trading
IMPACT DELIVERED
- The project was completed in a year with the help of five specialists and resulted in cost savings of USD1m
- The provision of bespoke support helped the client obtain additional trading commissions of USD4m over the next two years
- The client also had a team ready for quick research to support the trading desk
