Key people at Tora Trading Services.
Tora Trading Services develops a comprehensive, cloud-based platform managing the entire trading lifecycle for institutional investors. Its integrated suite includes an order and execution management system (OEMS) and a portfolio management system (PMS). This technology supports multi-asset trading across equities, fixed income, foreign exchange, and derivatives.
Tora was founded in 2004 by J. Keith Ducker and Robert Dykes. Their insight stemmed from the need for institutional-grade, integrated trading technology capable of handling multi-asset global market complexities. Ducker, with a Goldman Sachs sales trader background, and Dykes recognized a gap for a unified platform offering front and back-office capabilities.
Tora's solutions primarily serve asset managers and institutional investors needing robust systems to navigate diverse trading strategies and regulatory environments. The company's vision centers on empowering sophisticated market participants with advanced technology that streamlines operations, enhances decision-making, and provides comprehensive control over their portfolios.
TORA Trading Services is a cloud-native provider of multi-asset trading, order and portfolio management, execution and post-trade analytics used by hedge funds, asset managers, proprietary trading desks and sell-side trading desks; the business (founded in 2004) was acquired by London Stock Exchange Group and now forms part of LSEG’s trading solutions offering[1][3].
