This process is largely driven by investors who seek reduced transaction costs, access to higher liquidity, greater arbitrage opportunities and centralized risk management. Here we consider the growth in multi asset and cross asset trading in APAC and its impact on market structures. The underlining technology challenges for implementing a multi asset platform and achieving best of breed credentials What are the data needs of a viable cross-asset trading strategy? Combining OTC clearing and exchange-traded clearing in one system Global Economic research is provided by the biggest banks and ratings institutions, yet the predictive powers of these firms is notably and infamously low. Bloomberg reported that major Wall Street research is typically 46% accurate. However, this is a field that deals with an extremely large and accessible data set. One that is ideal for machine learning. Yet, there are no machine learning powered research or ratings firms on Wall Street. Robotic ratings and research firms could dominate this field, yet are not even in existence today.
