Access the global financial community

Your organisation’s business depends on interacting with the world of financial services.  Linking cost-effectively to customers, counterparties and service providers while maintaining reliability, scalability, privacy and speed is an increasingly complex challenge. The traditional model of multiple services spread across separate circuits, suppliers, equipment and management can double your total cost of communications.

That’s why you need a proven solution that reduces complexity and costs – a simple way to connect to institutional clients and corporate customers; to counterparties, banks and brokers; to exchanges, CCPs and CSDs; to clearing houses and payment processors; to market data and application service providers – and that can deliver that access quickly, reliably and securely.

The BT Radianz Member service enables you to access the largest secure networked financial community in the world.  We provide the link to that community and we manage it on a 24x7 basis.  We deliver this at a “financial services-strength” level of service quality, helping you to meet regulatory requirements that your business operations must comply with in terms of reliability and business continuity.  If your link needs to increase or decrease in capacity, we manage that as well and work with you to ensure that it is right-sized at all times and that you only pay for what you need.

The BT Radianz Member service provides the advantages of a market-leading “cloud” approach while meeting the stringent requirements of the financial community for reliability, privacy and speed.

Cutting the total cost of communications

The traditional model of multiple services spread across separate circuits, suppliers, equipment and management can double your total cost of communications. The BT Radianz Member service delivers a single redundant link so that you can access many or all of the external parties that you do business with.  That means that you can consolidate infrastructure, reduce capital expenditure and reduce the internal costs that are directly under your own control, helping you to ensure that you really deliver these savings.
