How does Stockino work?

Stockino stock trader software is an open platform. It works in a web browser environment in a cloud or on-premise environment . The very choice of solution – cloud vs. on-premise – reflects security requirements. All personal data is stored encrypted in the database and all communication flows through a secure SSL protocol. Nevertheless, there are companies that choose an on-premise solution for an extra high level of security. And thus running the software on servers exclusively within the internal network, without connecting to the Internet.

What modules does Stockino include?

Of course, the supporting element and unifying entity of the entire system is the Client and the Securities, respectively. Equita , with which almost all other modules of the entire system are linked. We record all legally required information about clients within the system, as well as other necessary data and entities, which subsequently enable the management of the necessary processes.

Investment strategies or portfolios

Investment strategies are one of the core modules of Stockina. They serve to categorize clients and at the same time automate the collective management of the investment portfolio. An investment strategy is a fully configurable entity, containing selected assets and possibly also a benchmark (e.g. S&P 500), according to which the performance of the strategy is compared. In the case of an active module for automatic calculation of trades, Stockino will also take care of automating the creation of purchase orders for such a number of assets that corresponds to the percentage ratios within the given strategy and at the same time takes into account the status of the client’s financial accounts. This also implies the need to work with fractional shares, i.e. fractions – yes , Stockino is adapted to the possibility of fractional trading.

Money, instructions, confirmations

Money, instructions and confirmations are important and interconnected modules for depositing, subsequent confirmation and entering market orders . In OCP companies, as a rule, responsibilities are divided between Front Office and Back Office. This also reflects the setting of user roles and powers within Stockin.

Entering orders to buy or sell into the system is on the agenda of the user with the role of Front office, and the actual confirmation and processing of orders is usually the responsibility of another administrator – this way the control of four eyes is preserved.

The entry of the order itself, its validation, confirmation, entry to the market and settlement are very complex screens, which are linked to a large number of validations and automatic checks. The goal of automated validation is to prevent possible errors and at the same time to generate such high-quality data in the system that subsequent reporting to the regulatory authorities takes place without problems.

The mentioned modules also include settlement of dividends, possible stock-splits, as well as management and accounting of the fee structure . The fee structure is fully configurable, adjustable according to the needs of a specific customer.

Reporting

Stockino contains a very complex reporting module, within which it is possible to look at the data of the entire company from different perspectives. In addition to legally required reports – e.g. reporting for the National Bank of Slovakia or ESMA reporting, dozens of other internal reports are available. These serve on the one hand for clients (e.g. evaluation of funds, statements from accounts) and on the other hand for internal needs (e.g. overviews of deposits, transactions, instructions).

Many of the reports are automated and the outputs are sent at set intervals to where they are expected – to the client or system administrator.

Stockino also contains a number of internal “triggers” that generate a report or at least a notification, it also includes the so-called AML – Anti Money Laundering report. At the same time, reports are one of those functionalities that are often programmed for a specific customer, as he can come up with his own view of the data that the company collects.

Reports by the regulator – NBS, ESMA are generated automatically , while the entire system is designed so that the data collected and recorded in Stockin are comprehensive enough for the generation of the given reports by legislation.

P&L or Profit & Losses

P&L is a separate Stockina plugin, a very complex module for monitoring the performance of individual portfolios, or entire investment strategies. It contains a complex mathematical model for calculating the value of the portfolio.
