STP Investment Services and CAPIS Partner to Launch Integrated Trading and Operations Model

Subscribe to our newsletter

STP Investment Services and CAPIS have announced a strategic partnership to provide a coordinated outsourced model for buy-side firms. This collaboration integrates CAPIS’ institutional trade execution with STP’s technology-enabled investment operations. The solution is designed to bridge the traditional gap between front-office trading and middle-office support, allowing investment managers to scale their businesses without the need to expand internal headcount.

The partnership focuses on eliminating operational friction by aligning data feeds and file structures. By synchronising system requirements and data fields, the firms enable trading data to flow directly into downstream workflows, reducing the need for manual reconciliation. This integrated approach has already been successfully deployed for a mutual client, resulting in a more scalable operating model and faster processing times across the trade lifecycle.

Under the agreement, CAPIS offers outsourced and supplemental trading across global equities, fixed income, and derivatives, including commission management expertise. Simultaneously, STP provides middle-office solutions through its BluePrint platform, covering reconciliation, settlements, and reporting. This flexible infrastructure allows emerging and established managers to outsource discrete functions or their entire operational suite to enhance efficiency and business continuity.
