Run the brokerage, not the servers.
Marlin® is a cloud-based front, middle and back office for brokerage firms: order management across multiple venues, pre-trade risk, portfolios, settlements, commissions, accounting and regulatory reporting, delivered as a managed subscription.
The technology was meant to lower costs. It became the cost.
Brokerage firms in emerging markets are asked for more transparency, more reporting and lower fees at the same time. The first-generation systems bought to cope with that bring their own servers, their own licence renewals and their own support headcount. Orders live in one application, settlements in another, and the month-end regulatory pack is assembled by hand. Senior people spend their week managing technology instead of clients.
Front, middle and back office on one subscription.
Marlin covers the trade cycle from account opening and KYC to settlement, commissions and compliance reporting in a single system that InfoTech hosts, maintains and updates. Orders are captured from web, mobile and dealer terminals, checked against pre-trade risk rules you configure, and routed straight through to connected venues over standard protocols. Firms subscribe to the modules they need and pay as they go, without a major upfront infrastructure build.
Multi-venue order management
One trading front end for equities, bonds, derivatives and ETFs across several exchanges. Real-time market watch, dashboards, a simulator on live data, and apps for web, Android and iOS.
Clients trade from wherever they are; dealers see every order in one place.
Risk checked before the order leaves
Margins, buying power, short-sell management and exposure limits applied in real time. Maker-checker authorisation for sensitive actions. Multi-factor authentication at login and at order level.
Fewer breaches, fewer disputes, and a clean audit trail when the regulator asks.
A back office that closes the loop
Portfolio positions, settlements at instrument level, N-level chart of accounts, IFRS-compliant reports, automated commissions and billing, instant contract notes, central depository integration for reconciliation.
Month-end becomes a report you run, not a project you staff.
