The heart of the derivatives market

OpenGamma is the financial technology company at the heart of the derivatives market, delivering unique analytics that marry buy-side needs with sell-side constraints.

TRANSPARENCY THAT BUILDS CONFIDENCE

We provide the data and analytics you need to fully understand and optimise your derivative counterparty relationships.

New regulatory capital constraints are redefining provider and user relationships. We help buy and sell-side participants appreciate how this impacts pricing, working to build longer, more sustainable relationships.

Why now?

It’s a new world order - and that requires a fresh approach. With the pressure on banks’ business lines, relationships and pricing, it’s vital for all participants to possess the knowledge to make the sharpest possible decisions. That’s also why it’s never been more important to engage directly with counterparties. After all, in a complex regulatory environment, dialogue and knowledge go hand-in-hand to ensure that all sides of the trade benefit from a fair outcome.
