The rate of technological advancement in trading, and in the financial industry as a whole, is ever increasing. For most companies, dynamic and rapid innovation of their technology means a higher throughput and lower latency, and for those unable to adapt, lower profit margins. Belvedere has recognized these challenges and developed specific measures to keep pace with the industry. For example, the union of our high performing proprietary software and direct connectivity to many of the North American exchanges has kept our company agile by elevating Belvedere’s ability to identify and execute on trading opportunities.

In an effort to stay ahead of the curve, Belvedere’s Technology Department has implemented “working” groups consisting of some of the best software developers, quantitative analysts, user experience analysts, and infrastructure experts in the industry. With experience Belvedere has found that the most effective way to deliver technological business value is to embrace a Scrum-derived Agile development methodology. Our process means that new high-tech innovations are brought to fruition in 2-3 week cycles. Our “working” groups specialize in their respective areas and are continually aware of the latest concepts and technologies in their fields, enabling Belvedere to respond to even the subtlest change in the industry.
