Teknavo

INVESTMENT BANKING TECHNOLOGY

Teknavo has an unequalled track record in helping investment banks to develop complex products and electronic trading applications. Our specialists have extensive experience of the unique reengineering, architectural and software engineering requirements in this sector.

We have successfully delivered a number of projects involving customers’ existing systems. This requires a deep understanding of each client’s specific business strategy and culture, as well as the most effective software development techniques. From waterfall to Agile, we can easily adapt to the development methodologies that work best for each of our clients.

We’re experts with experience in all areas of investment banking technology, front to back, for equities and fixed income, derivatives, trading analytics, electronic/exchange trading (Equities, FX, Rates and listed derivatives), risk management and pricing engines.

eCommerce

Teknavo’s e-commerce team builds responsive websites that communicate our clients’ brand pillars and values, while staying true to technical best practices. We help our clients develop a digital presence that integrates brand, content, commerce and community—ensuring consistency, authenticity and a seamless experience on all devices.

Our solutions stick to industry best practices:

Use open standards and open source platforms wherever possible to accelerate development.

Separate back-end systems integration from front-end digital experience design.
Define user performance KPIs upfront (e.g. page response time and page object download time) to guide release criteria.
Ensure proper accessibility and a seamless experience across all devices (responsive design and frameworks).
Build SDKs and APIs to enable clients to independently customize and extend solutions.
Incorporate content management, order management, PCI rules, ‘demand spike’ management tools, SEO and data mining.

ASP.NET

Microsoft ASP.NET is one of the most popular development tools for building web based systems and applications. Using .NET architecture with the computational power of the Azure cloud environment, our development team offers enterprise-level web solutions with practically unlimited data storage and processing.

Our .NET projects are implemented and supported by Microsoft certified programmers, database specialists, release engineers and technical writers.

Ruby and Ruby on Rails

Ruby on Rails is an efficient open-source framework for Internet development. It’s easy to make changes and add functionality.

Teknavo provides Ruby architects, developers, designers and testers. The team builds scalable sites that can handle millions of active visitors. Our expertise is not just limited to the RoR framework. We take advantage of many others Ruby implementations including: MRI, JRuby, Rubinius, and MRuby.

JavaScript and HTML5

Web software is becoming more and more asynchronous, as architecture becomes more modular, and more APIs query one another. So, you need to deploy the proper tools to make sure your site is robust.

We use Node.js as a server building platform and create a homogenous JavaScript development environment for our e-commerce projects.

We support all the latest multimedia tools such as cross document messaging, offline storage, drag-and-drop and other key features that run in the background of existing and emerging hardware technologies.

Bloomberg API & APP PORTAL

Bloomberg Application Portal gives innovative developers an opportunity to create apps for the many thousands of Bloomberg subscribers.

If you have an idea, or your company has a specific need, we can develop applications from scratch. If you’ve already built your application, we can finesse your user interface and take your application to market.

We’ve worked with traditional financial institutions, academics and independent software vendors. We’ve designed apps for investment portfolio optimization, fixed income securities performance, analysis and representation of infinite returns time series as finite samples, custom market behaviour indicators and many others.

We can also integrate Bloomberg enterprise solutions with your existing systems, using the Bloomberg API.
