The Kyte Group provides direct market access, clearing and settlement services to professional traders in more than 60 offices spread across 10 countries. It also runs its own proprietary trading and brokerage services. Providing this community with high quality market data is essential. Yet, finding the right management information system to deliver the necessary visibility of latency and data quality issues was proving to be difficult.

The Geneos solution

Introducing ITRS Geneos has allowed Kyte to get real-time monitoring of feed performance by comparing the prices being submitted to trading engines against a data vendor reference feed.

"The market data we distribute has to be of the highest quality," explained Dr Allan Chapman, Kyte Group's director of IT. "The Geneos management information system gives us this in real time so our trading community can make accurate trading decisions, maximise opportunities and achieve the best revenue potential."
