LUSID's flexible order management system (OMS) enables every job function involved in the order lifecycle to improve efficiency and compliance in the way that best suits you.

  • Run pre-trade compliance on your orders and notify a Trader that these orders can be picked up.
  • Once a trade has been executed, allocate fills to portfolios using allocation algorithms.
