ability to create custom benchmarks.

Reporting & consultancy

The service provides real-time reports on current
trading activity and on-demand customisable reports for any time period.
Reports can be generated online or scheduled for electronic delivery.

ITG Analytics offers consultative services covering the
full investment process. This includes reviewing portfolio construction,
decision timing, desk timing and the use of brokers. ITG Analytics analyses
broker performance, algorithm and router behaviour, and venue preferences to
deliver valuable analysis with actionable insights.

Pre-trade analysis

ITG offers
market impact estimates through the ACE model, indications of trading
conditions through the proprietary market indicators and suggestions of algorithmic
strategies based on the client’s past performance under similar market
conditions.

Future plans

ITG is committed to the adoption of new industry
level initiatives to establish standardized TCA FIX protocols. Many of ITG’s
new development initiatives have a strong focus on FIX data. The
well-established ITG Net FIX network allows us to quickly analyse broker
placement and execution level data for insights that can help reduce costs and
mitigate execution risk.
