Tradu accelerates digital transformation of its trading platform with strategic partnerships and cloud innovation to enhance its multi-asset offering
I n the competitive world of online trading, technology leadership is increasingly becoming the differentiator between success and stagnation. For Tradu, a retail trading firm headquartered in London, embracing this reality has meant embarking on an ambitious journey of technological transformation.
Paul Sutherland, Chief Information Officer( CIO) at Tradu, joined the company a year after spending nearly two decades at some of the world’ s largest financial institutions including JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, Barclays, HSBC and Standard Chartered.
“ I’ d always wanted to try a smaller business and the opportunity to come to Tradu came along,” Paul explains.“ The people I spoke to were fabulous, and the culture here is great, and very strong.”
For Paul, the transition from global banking giants to a more niche trading platform provider has been invigorating, though not without its challenges. The scale may be different, but the technical complexities remain.
“ We’ ve got a lot of incredibly talented multidisciplinary technologists here,” Paul says.“ It’ s very different from larger organisations where you have many people doing specialised jobs. Our people are welcoming, hardworking and highly skilled, especially our technology team.”
