SoftSolutions Integrates AI Capabilities Into nexRates Fixed-Income Trading Platform

Subscribe to our newsletter

SoftSolutions has integrated production-ready artificial intelligence into its nexRates fixed-income trading platform. The new tool allows traders to use plain language to automatically generate context-dependent Request for Quote (RFQ) layouts, workflow rules, and custom interfaces, eliminating the need for developer or vendor intervention.

The AI operates strictly within a predefined catalogue of platform fields and actions. Every configuration is schema-validated, previewed, and requires final confirmation from the trader. Crucially, the AI functions solely for decision support and desk configuration; it does not price, quote, or execute trades. All risk limits, compliance gates, and supervisor approvals apply throughout, preserving MiFID II and RTS 6 alignment.

Furthermore, the system analyses counterparty behaviour to propose concrete strategy adjustments based on client history and tiering. By bringing historical patterns into a single view, the AI facilitates faster calls while ensuring the trader retains complete command over every decision.
