SmartTrade Technologies has announced it has selected Amazon Web Services (AWS) to supports a new strategic initiative named the MetaCloud project, which enables the firm to manage and deploy its solutions across both public and private cloud environments.
Driven by its innovation incubator, SmartTrade Advanced Innovation Lab (SAIL), the firm says it is enhancing its capabilities via the MetaCloud project, utilising AWS to streamline its operations and focus on delivering innovative solutions for its clients. These include LLM powered automation and insights for front office workflows, enabling quicker and smarter decisions; as well as analytics, enabling financial institutions to mine their market and trading data ensuring client value and service are optimised. A sophisticated hybrid cloud environment enables automated deployments and seamless integration of Generative AI, the firm explains.
Migrating to AWS yields significant benefits, SmartTrade states, including enhanced productivity and rapid scalability, with the ability to provision complete environments in under 15 minutes. AWS services are also instrumental in the firm’s innovation roadmap, it continues, powering advancements like its Copilot AI solution, which optimises trading processes and client management.
“Building on AWS is about strategically positioning SmartTrade to define the future of trading and payments technology,” says David Vincent, CEO and co-founder of SmartTrade Technologies. “Leveraging the advanced infrastructure and services of AWS allows us to accelerate our innovation roadmap, particularly with advancements like our AI smart Copilot and advanced analytics services.”
Scott Mullins, managing director, AWS Financial Services, adds, “AWS’s capabilities augment SmartTrade’s existing strengths, further accelerating their innovation roadmap, enhancing their market-leading platforms, and enabling the delivery of next-generation solutions to their clients.”
