Client Case Study: Cassovia

 

"Having experienced Xenomorph's TimeScape at a major global investment bank, I knew the product was impressive and could easily handle multiple asset classes and time series analysis. The people at Xenomorph made a big difference; everything from the sales process to supporting Cassovia’s live system was handled with a level of care and attention that vindicated our decision to select Xenomorph for the firm’s data management platform."

Frantisek Kovac, Principal, Cassovia

Industry: Proprietary Trading

Customer Profile:
Cassovia is a trading firm focused on fundamental investment in equities that incorporates technical analysis into its trading decisions.

Business Situation:
Cassovia needed an extensible, high performance and automated solution to manage, aggregate and analyse company fundamentals, end-of-day prices and CDS data, to quickly and reliably inform its trading decisions. The company needed to be comfortable with the quality and ease of manipulation of the data, in order to minimise time spent on building complex trading models and back testing strategies.

Solution:
Cassovia chose Xenomorph's TimeScape analytics and data management platform to solve its data issues. Cassovia was impressed with TimeScape's ability to import, store and retrieve data of many different formats together with its out-of-the-box financial analytics functions. Cassovia recognised TimeScape's inherently extensible design and became confident that it could manage Cassovia's expanding remit as the company grows.

Benefits:
  • Flexibility and scope of TimeScape: its ability to handle any type of data including fundamental, commodity, currency and macroeconomic data
  • Business focussed solution with an easy-to-use, intuitive interface and business oriented query language
  • Cost savings: TimeScape enables users to quickly and easily manage data, create new functions and test large databases in seconds without necessarily needing deep technical knowledge.
  • Rapid implementation of solution enabled by a streamlined process and sound product knowledge
  • Compatability with Excel: TimeScape enabled the continuing use of Excel spreadsheets but within a controlled and managed framework
