Trading Technologies (TT), a provider of professional software for traders, announced yesterday that it is expanding its risk management offering with the addition of KRM22's Risk Manager.
KRM22 is a software investment company focused on managing risk for capital market participants. Its real-time post-trade risk service, dubbed Risk Manager, is currently available on the TT platform thanks to the newest partnership.
The system allows users to assess liquidity and margin in real-time, giving derivatives traders options to generate a market edge even in the most unpredictable and volatile conditions. The current offering covers analytical data and margins for existing positions. In the future, TT also intends to introduce the feature on open orders. This will enable both traders and brokers to manage risk at the time of opening trades better.

TT Invested in KRM22
Close cooperation between TT and KRM22 has been in place since the beginning of 2022 when Trading Technologies invested $6.35 million in the further development of the technology and software investment company. In addition to the financial injection, TT has decided to promote and distribute KRM22's products specialized in risk management.
In December 2021, TT was acquired by 7RIDGE, a specialized growth equity firm. The move intended to boost Trading Technologies' organic growth and to help 7RIDGE conduct other strategic acquisitions through its new subsidiary.
