Rule Financial applies a  framework of re-usable software components, the Rule Trading Platform (RTP), to accelerate software delivery whenever appropriate. 

These components include a time series database, a business activity monitoring dashboard, numerous market data adaptors, exchange connectors, and a price publish/subscribe platform, making RTP a powerful and comprehensive tool in the hands of Rule’s technical and business consultants.

For Tullett Prebon, a major inter-broker dealer, we developed a market data publishing engine to support their revenue stream from sales of data to the market.  The application acquires, cleanses, stores and publishes 10 million data “price ticks” per day across cash bonds, equities, derivatives and interest rate swaps.

Equally, individual RTP components can be sold directly to clients as licensable products. One of these is the Business Activity Monitoring Dashboard (BAM), which allows organisations to see a real-time visual representation of how their business processes are performing.  The BAM lets an organisation lower its operational risk while making better-informed business decisions. It also identifies problems and helps resolve them faster. Rule has implemented the dashboard at Lloyds TSB and Tullett Prebon.
