NEW YORK and SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Omniex, the leading institutional investment and trading platform for crypto-assets, won the inaugural award for Best Crypto Trading Platform in this year's Fund Technology and WSL Awards event on Wednesday.
The Fund Technology Awards recognize and reward providers catering to asset managers and institutional traders that have demonstrated exceptional customer service and innovative product development over the past 12 months.
Omniex was recognized for Omniex Edge™, its purpose-built platform for institutions seeking exposure to crypto-assets. This end-to-end solution provides portfolio and risk management, trade execution, investment operations, and compliance solutions to support the needs of buy and sell-side institutions, broker-dealers and OTC trading firms.
The Omniex platform provides an integrated experience where clients can seamlessly aggregate portfolio positions, view and consume both exchange and OTC market data, and execute trades using sophisticated algorithms designed and developed by an experienced team with decades of relevant institutional experience. Since going live in 2018, Omniex Edge™ has seen numerous key enhancements based on market and client feedback.
"It's an incredible honor to be recognized in the first ever Crypto Trading Platform category of the Fund Technology and WSL Awards," said Hu Liang, Co-founder and CEO of Omniex.
