Creating a comprehensive trader toolkit for the Sellside
Octaura has always sought to enable and prepare market participants for the future of electronic trading in the syndicated loan market. With the launch of Octaura’s Runs Manager, we are beginning the first step in building out our larger suite of offerings for our Sell-side participants.
Octaura’s Runs Manager is designed to simplify, centralize, and amplify the way dealers post and manage their runs, while seamlessly connecting to the broader ecosystem. Runs Manager allows dealers to bulk edit, upload, and highlight multiple items to post at once – to manage all Axes and Runs on Octaura, while also allowing runs customization and publishing to Bloomberg RUNZ. This solution further expands the trader's toolbox to arm you in the age of electronic trading.
Historically, the process of publishing dealer runs has been fragmented and manual with lengthy Excel sheets, often limiting the reach and responsiveness of market participants. Within Octuara’s new Runs Manager, dealers now have a centralized interface to manage their watch lists, publish runs with a single click to both Bloomberg and Octaura, and ensure their offerings are visible to clients at the right times— easily refreshed with a couple of clicks.
Smart filtering capabilities ensure that only relevant loans surface, reducing noise and improving match quality when the volume of inquiries is high. And with Bloomberg connectivity built in, dealers can maintain their existing workflows while expanding their reach.
Once posted within Runs Manager, our dealers unlock access to analytics, generated from our access to unique platform data and internal machine learning algorithms.
Looking to the long-term vision for dealer workflows
This launch signifies the first step in a broader dealer strategy, laying the groundwork for future dealer-initiated protocols – workflows which will all begin within the Runs Manager ecosystem. It’s a foundational move toward a more dynamic, data-driven loan trading marketplace for our dealer community, now available at no cost. Octaura remains committed to growing user’s toolbox through partnerships and cutting-edge tools to better arm dealers for flexible workflows.
Runs Manager is just the start.
