Nissay Asset Management Selects Triton to Streamline Trading Operations | LeapRate | Online Trading Industry News, Broker Intelligence & Fintech Analysis
Virtu Financial said Monday that Nissay Asset Management Corporation has adopted its Triton execution management system to enhance trading efficiency across global markets.
The move follows a detailed vendor evaluation process.
Nissay Asset Management, a wholly owned subsidiary established in 1995, specialises in insurance-related asset management and provides investment products for pension funds, individual investors and other long-term clients.
The firm went live on Triton for domestic Japanese trading in September, with international desks due to transition later this year.
Triton is a multi-asset execution platform designed for active traders and supports equities, ETFs, futures, options, FX and fixed income across more than 700 brokers and venues.
Virtu noted that the system integrates Algo Wheel and analytics tools, and can be tailored to client workflows, including bespoke wheel logic to meet internal requirements.
Shuichi Uchida, head of trading at Nissay Asset Management, said adopting Triton and Virtu’s POSIT Alert had centralised “automated execution, RFQs, and IOIs” into a single interface.
He added that this “significantly enhanced our operational efficiency”, adding that the firm valued Triton’s “intuitive operability and scalability” alongside Virtu’s responsiveness to client needs.
Nissay AM also highlighted Virtu’s strong client satisfaction within the Japanese institutional market and the companies’ longstanding relationship, having already implemented Virtu’s transaction cost analysis tools.
Phil Chevalier, co-head of Virtu Execution Services APAC, believes the selection validated the company’s strategy of providing flexible, best-in-class systems adaptable to clients’ workflow requirements.
