Linear Investments to use TFG Financial Systems for real-time margin reporting

Related Topics

Linear Investments, a FCA-approved boutique prime broker, has appointed TFG Financial Systems for the provision of real-time margin reporting.

In addition, TFG will be adding its trademark real-time portfolio analytics to the Linear offering.
 
This will be extended to Linear’s hedge fund clients, enabling them to carry out sophisticated pre-deal margin and impact risk assessments.
 
Linear Investments is a provider of prime broking services for medium-sized hedge fund managers that are not being supported by larger prime brokers.
 
“At Linear we have found there is tremendous value to be offered to funds in terms of proper trading and risk management systems,” says Andrew Herriot (pictured), head of risk at Linear Investments. “TFG can offer both ourselves, and our clients, valuable end of day and real-time risk solutions. Smaller funds would not usually have access to systems of this level of sophistication, and we’re pleased to be able to bring them to our clients.”
 
Jim Rogers, COO of TFG Financial Systems, says: “The leading prime brokers are moving away from next day batch margin reporting to intra-day or real-time margin calculation and what-if analysis, allowing them to better manage their risk and better serve their clients. TFG is excited to be working with Linear to effect this state of the art change.”
