Our take
OSTTRA, a collaborative venture between financial powerhouses CME Group and IHS Markit, stands as a leading post-trading and optimisation platform, revolutionising workflow efficiency, connectivity, and risk management for trading market participants.
With equal ownership split between the two industry giants, OSTTRA's co-CEOs leverage their complementary expertise to streamline focus and responsibility. One spearheads portfolio and sales team oversight, while the other drives business strategy, operations, and technology functions, embodying the balanced leadership ethos mirrored in the company's ownership structure.
Established in 2021, OSTTRA may be young, yet the seasoned backgrounds of its founders, hailing from prestigious institutions like JP Morgan, TriOptima, and Reset, ensure a formidable network and industry insight from the outset.
