Trade Capture & Setup
Configure entities, assets, banks, brokers and custodians, then create and manage trades from one controlled environment.
- Centralise trade instruction and setup
- Maintain consistent reference data
- Reduce repetitive manual entry

Replace spreadsheets, email approvals and manual custodian follow-ups with one controlled platform for trade capture, approvals, cash visibility, settlement tracking and reconciliation.
As family offices add entities, portfolios, brokers, custodians and approval layers, fragmented workflows create more manual work, more follow-ups and less control.
Trade Blotter creates one controlled operating environment around the full trade lifecycle, from setup and instruction through settlement, reconciliation, cash and consolidated positions.
Teams can depend on manual broker or custodian confirmation to know whether trades have progressed or settled.
Email and manual approvals make it harder to maintain defined controls and a complete audit trail.
Expected versus actual cash movements and upcoming funding requirements can be difficult to see across entities and accounts.
Internal trade, cash and position records may not match custodian data, creating investigation and follow-up.
Entity, portfolio and asset positions spread across multiple custodians are difficult to consolidate.
Processes often depend on individual spreadsheets and knowledge instead of a controlled system.
