OUTSOURCED TRADING

Celadon’s outsourced agency desk adds significant value by helping clients execute their strategies without tying up the capital and resources needed to maintain an in-house trading operation.

An increasing number of buy-side firms have turned to outsourced trading in recent years. Clients benefit from Celadon’s significant investment in trading operations infrastructure and technology. We can act as a primary trading desk, complement an in-house desk, or provide additional coverage on busy trading days. By leveraging our trading desk, you gain an experienced team of traders, each with product expertise developed over decades that is difficult to replicate.

  • Primary trading desk partnerships
  • Complementary satellite trading teams
  • Improved efficiency
  • Comprehensive expertise
  • World-class infrastructure and technology
