PLATFORM

Everything you need in ONE place

A fully integrated data and innovation platform for Financial Services

Distributed data store for Operations AND Analytics

The consistency and accuracy of a relational database combined with the scalability and performance of ‘big data’ technologies.

A single, consistent ‘golden source’ for all your business requirements, with full historical capability and lineage.
Scalable, low-code workflow to build applications

Workflow offers a fast, agile and transparent means to build applications, enabling close collaboration between Product, BA and development teams.

Our low-code workflow engine is unique in being 100% distributed & linearly scalable. That means no limits to the speed or scope of what you can run. And it comes with a visual designer that makes it super easy to use.
Complex reporting Super-fast & Scalable

Our low-code reporting engine is designed for the complex and computationally demanding requirements of Financial Services.

Run reports 1000s of times faster than on a relational DB.

Report as fast as you need, when you need it; as with all aspects of Cyoda, our reporting engine is linearly and elastically scalable.

Volatility means opportunity

We are witnessing a change in the economic cycle.

Simple buy and hold strategies are not working at the moment.

The solution is dynamic asset management, which we offer.

a) Provide our algorithmic investment strategy to other investment funds as a managed account.

b) An exclusive collaboration where we would co-found an investment-regulated fund acceptable to Family Offices and Fund of Funds in terms of operational risk.

c) Become part of another regulated fund through a merger and provide our strategies in a collaborative win-win strategy module.

How are we different from the competitors?

Our fund’s performance. Since launching our investment strategy, we have systematically beaten most funds and the S&P 500 stock index as our benchmark.

Investors must look for an alternative absolute return investment strategy that is armed for today’s uncertainties and high inflation with the possible shortest investment horizon: The fully automated strategy responds dynamically to current events in global markets by rebalancing a portfolio of a wide range of assets in the form of ETFs, Stocks, and Futures daily.

This can be done in a one-off manner or, more commonly, the process (called a “workflow”) is something people use on a recurring (daily, weekly, monthly) basis.

The way Alteryx builds workflows becomes a form of process documentation allowing users to see, collaborate on, support, and enhance the process. Data can be read and written to files, databases, and APIs.

Alteryx also comes with functionality that enables predictive analytics and geospatial analysis.
