Wedbush Securities has adopted a cloud-ready platform from trading technology provider Rapid Addition to upgrade its trading infrastructure.

The platform helps unify front and middle-office processes, offering greater efficiency and scalability. It positions Wedbush to respond more quickly to client needs and adapt as business demands grow. The collaboration also paves the way for future developments, including expanding into new asset classes and workflows.
