Technology Trends in Capital Markets: From Secret Sauce to Open Source

Open-source software development is on the radar of more capital markets firms than ever before.
/

London, 23 January 2020 –The capital markets have traditionally thrived on the notion that technology and product developments are closed-door projects that involve the addition of some sort of “secret sauce” to glean a competitive edge. How, then, does engaging with the open-source software community fit with this cultural mindset, and what are some of the challenges to consider?

This Impact Report is based on conversations with executives with knowledge of their firms’ open-source software development and adoption strategies at 15 global capital markets firms. It also includes proprietary Aite Group data gathered during research across the capital markets community in Q4 2018 as well as Q1 and Q2 2019.

This 29-page Impact Report contains nine figures and one table. Clients of Aite Group’s Institutional Securities & Investments service can download this report, the corresponding charts, and the Executive Impact Deck.

This report mentions Finos, GitHub, and Goldman Sachs.
