alternative trading systems, dark pools, broker algos and transaction cost

interfaces with upstream and downstream vendors for trade matching, pricing,
accounting and security data. 
Linedata Longview is the master record for intraday position keeping,

PM tools

Portfolio management tools include the portfolio

analysis of performance (attribution and contribution) and risk (exposure, Value-at-Risk,
scenario testing) from third-party vendors.

Linedata will focus on broadening its asset
coverage support and workflows; exposure-based portfolio management; and
enhance asset allocation management tools, including blended and nested models.
