Key Terms

execution management system, etfs, fx, rfqs, +3 more

7 terms

execution management system technical

"Triton is a global, multi-asset execution management system (EMS) for trading equities..."

An execution management system is software that helps traders send, track and control buy or sell orders across markets, acting like a GPS and autopilot for executing trades. It matters to investors because it affects how quickly and cheaply trades are carried out, how well prices are captured, and how trading risks and rules are enforced — all of which can change portfolio costs and returns.

etfs financial

"for trading equities, ETFs, futures, options, FX, and fixed income across 700+ brokers..."

ETFs, or exchange-traded funds, are investment funds that hold a collection of stocks, bonds, or other assets, and can be bought or sold on stock exchanges like individual shares. They offer investors an easy way to diversify their holdings and access different markets or sectors without buying multiple individual assets. Because they are traded throughout the day, ETFs provide flexibility and can help investors manage risk while pursuing their financial goals.

fx financial

"equities, ETFs, futures, options, FX, and fixed income across 700+ brokers..."

fx stands for foreign exchange, the system of buying, selling and converting one currency into another. For investors, fx matters because changes in exchange rates can raise or lower a company’s reported sales, costs and profits when business crosses borders—like how the same amount of money can buy more or less abroad—so movements in fx can affect earnings, valuation and investment returns.

rfqs technical

"for all types of flow – Care, PT, DMA, Algos, RFS, and RFQs."

RFQs (requests for quotes) are messages an investor or broker sends to one or more dealers asking for a firm price to buy or sell a security, bond, or other financial instrument. They matter because they let investors compare actual offers, assess how easy it will be to trade (liquidity), and identify the best cost and timing — similar to asking several stores for a price before making a purchase.

iois technical

"centralized key functions—including automated execution, RFQs, and IOIs—into a single..."

An IOI (indication of interest) is a non-binding signal from a broker, institutional investor or potential buyer that they may be willing to buy a stock, bond or block of shares at an approximate size or price. It acts like an RSVP before an event, helping issuers and traders gauge demand and set expectations; stronger IOIs can push pricing or allocation decisions and give other investors a quick read on market appetite.

transaction cost analysis financial

"having previously adopted Virtu's transaction cost analysis (TCA)."

Transaction cost analysis measures the true costs of buying and selling securities beyond the visible price, including broker fees, the difference between buy and sell quotes, price moves caused by the trade, and timing delays. For investors this is important because these hidden costs can quietly reduce returns; understanding them is like checking both the sticker price and fuel and toll costs before a long car trip, letting you choose cheaper routes, better execution methods, or different service providers.

View in glossary

oems technical

"As a leading OEMS provider, we look forward to their continued innovation..."

OEMs, or Original Equipment Manufacturers, are companies that produce the main components or products that other companies use to build finished goods. For investors, OEMs are important because their performance can influence the supply chain, manufacturing costs, and overall market trends in industries like technology, automotive, and electronics. Their success often reflects broader economic health and consumer demand.

Triton was designed with active traders in mind and provides technology that assists traders in achieving their objectives throughout the lifecycle of a trade.

Following a comprehensive vendor evaluation process, Nissay Asset Management selected Triton based on its seamless integration of Algo Wheel and Analytics capabilities, along with Virtu's ability to deliver bespoke wheel logic tailored to Nissay AM's specific internal requirements. The firm successfully went live with domestic Japanese flow in September, with ex-Japan trading desks scheduled to transition to the platform later this year.

"By implementing Virtu Triton and POSIT Alert, we have successfully centralized key functions—including automated execution, RFQs, and IOIs—into a single, streamlined interface. This integration has significantly enhanced our operational efficiency, and we anticipate that leveraging TCA will further optimize our execution performance. We highly value Triton’s intuitive operability and scalability, as well as Virtu’s exceptional responsiveness to our specific requirements. As a leading OEMS provider, we look forward to their continued innovation and dedicated support," commented by Shuichi Uchida, Head of Trading at Nissay Asset Management.

Beyond Triton's robust technical functionality, Nissay AM cited Virtu's growing industry recognition and strong client satisfaction among its Japanese institutional peers as key differentiating factors. The firm valued Virtu's holistic coverage model and the deep relationship built over several years of collaboration, having previously adopted Virtu's transaction cost analysis (TCA). This multi-year partnership demonstrates Virtu's commitment to supporting institutional clients with integrated technology solutions that evolve alongside their business needs.

"This selection validates our strategy of delivering integrated, best-in-class technology solutions with the flexibility to adapt to each client's unique workflow requirements," said Phil Chevalier, Co-Head of Virtu Execution Services APAC. "We're particularly proud that our growing reputation among Japanese asset managers and our commitment to bespoke solutions resonated so strongly throughout their selection process."
