Northern Trust Hedge Fund Services has significantly expanded its platform to accommodate growing interest from hedge funds and other asset managers in energy and physical commodity investments and demand for tools to manage the complexities of trading in these markets.
NTHFS, a division of Northern Trust, has enhanced its Omnium platform to better support the trading of spots, forwards, futures and physical contracts within the energy and commodities sectors. This platform now provides a unified investment and accounting book of record across public markets, private markets and commodities.
Jeff Boyd, Head of Northern Trust Hedge Fund Services, Americas at NTHFS, commented: “Hedge fund managers are increasingly eager to tap into the energy and commodities markets, but the industry has lacked the necessary services to manage these products effectively.
“We’ve collaborated closely with our clients to upgrade our platform, ensuring that it delivers the expertise, service, and transparency they expect. These enhancements solidify Omnium’s position as a market leader, offering unmatched support for our clients’ evolving needs.”
The new offering, now available on the Omnium platform, integrates various asset classes and investment vehicles, and features customisable web-based dashboards.
