Devexperts Maps Out Future Trends: Changing Dynamics in Financial Markets

<p>Devexperts,
a provider of software solutions to investment firms, is unveiling its market
trend predictions for the financial industry in the upcoming year. In recent
months, Devexperts has observed emerging trends in broker/dealer/client
relationships, and these are expected to persist into 2024.</p><p>Clients
Eager to Regain Control of Their Businesses</p><p>In
2024, Devexperts anticipates a rise in brokers broadening their services beyond
mere access to the US market. This expansion encompasses global stock and ETF
trading, along with diversification into various asset classes. </p><p>Broker
revenues have experienced a decline, attributed to the push for zero
commissions amid the pandemic. Simultaneously, operating expenses for brokers
are on the rise. In response to this financial challenge, brokers are compelled
to meet the demands of their increasingly discerning users. To counteract the
decline in revenues, brokers are strategically introducing a broader range of
trading options.</p><p>At the same time, brokers are adapting to market shifts, including Options trading volumes
surpassing Futures, heightened regulatory compliance, and the volatile nature
of cryptocurrency markets.</p><p>Recently, Devexperts noted trader demands urging brokers to adapt and
integrate new offerings into their platforms. Users are no longer satisfied
with restricted solutions; instead, they seek access to diverse global markets
and multi-asset trading around the clock. </p><p>This shift is underscored by the growing preference for 24×7 markets in the United States, prompting brokers to swiftly adjust their approach in the new year as a crucial distinguishing factor for clients.</p><p>Regarding
the future for Devexperts, Michael Sprachman, the Director of Exchange Traded
Solutions, remarked: “Devexperts has identified a notable trend, evolving in
2024, where clients are eager to regain full control of their businesses. Given
the choice between purchasing solutions or developing internally, Devexperts'
hybrid model is being utilized by clients for rapid market entry and
cost-efficiency.”</p><p>“This
approach aligns with the rise of all-encompassing solutions for execution,
clearing, and back-office operations, enabling brokers, both established and
new to the market, to control and focus on core business aspects.”</p><p>As
comprehensive solutions become more accessible to clients, and the increasing
emphasis on regulatory requirements in global markets drives structured changes
across the industry, this trend is expected to gain traction in the coming
years. Specifically, there is a noticeable shift in the account structures
managed between brokers and end destinations, prompting a transition from
omnibus relationships to disclosed relationships.</p><p>In
the upcoming years, Devexperts envisions creating a comprehensive ecosystem
that allows brokers to maintain ownership of their businesses. The company's
strategy involves building a marketplace and fostering collaborations with
various counterparties.</p><p>DXtrade
