Moreover, Validus’ ability to ingest data in any format from any source facilitates easy onboarding without taxing clients’ resources.
Advantage Futures chairman & chief executive officer, Joseph Guinan said, “I’ve had great respect for Eventus CEO Travis Schwab for more than 15 years. The company has thrived under his leadership, and its Validus trade surveillance platform is now an important component of the Advantage surveillance program.”
