Data may be plentiful in capital markets but clarity is often in short supply.

In our latest episode of Data in the AI Era, Peter Finter sat down with Cat Turley, CEO and founder of ExeQution Analytics, to talk about the future of trading analytics and what it takes to turn data into action when speed, trust, and transparency are non-negotiable.

From her early days building analytics platforms at multinational banks to her current role helping firms make smarter use of high-cost data, Cat offers hard-won insights into the human, technological, and cultural forces shaping the front office. Cat’s message is clear: in capital markets, data isn’t the product. Understanding is. And too often, there’s a gap between the two.

Data in the AI Era - Episode 5 -  The future of trading analytics and getting more from your data

In this episode of Data in the AI Era, Peter Finter is joined by Ashok Reddy, our CEO, to unpack what it really means to compete in the real-time economy, and why most capital markets firms are still held back by infrastructure that can’t scale. Ashok explains how firms are redefining speed and adaptability, and why temporal AI may be the key to building systems that perceive, reason, and act across time.

Data in the AI Era - Episode 4 - Trading in time: Why temporal AI is the next frontier for capital markets

In the latest episode of Data in the AI era, host Peter Finter sits down with Heidi Lanford, a seasoned data and analytics leader with experience driving AI adoption at organizations like Fitch Group and Red Hat. Now a co-founder at NavAlytix AI, Heidi brings fresh insights into why AI projects succeed or fail and how businesses can overcome common obstacles to unlock true AI-driven transformation.

AI is often positioned as a purely technical challenge—one that requires better algorithms, larger datasets, and more computing power. However, Heidi argues that these elements, while important, are not the primary barriers to success. Instead, the real obstacles lie in leadership buy-in, cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to drive cultural shifts within an organization. Without these factors, even the most advanced AI solutions can struggle to gain traction or deliver meaningful business outcomes

Data in the AI Era - Episode 3 - AI success isn’t about technology — it’s about leadership

In this episode of Data in the AI era, host Peter Finter sits down with Time Magazine technology pioneer Mark Palmer to explore how capital markets firms are navigating the AI revolution. They discuss the practical applications of generative AI, the challenges of integrating AI into a highly regulated industry, and how AI can enhance—rather than replace—human decision-making.

Data in the AI Era - Episode 2 - Can GenAI drive real value in capital markets?

In the first episode of Data in the AI Era, Erin Stanton shares her expertise on navigating the challenges of data readiness, strategy, and management in today’s AI-driven landscape. Drawing on over 15 years of experience, she reflects on the evolution of her organization’s data strategy and the intentional steps taken to ensure their data supports scalable, high-impact AI initiatives.

Erin discusses how to prepare data for AI through transparency, disciplined processes, and a mindset open to learning from failure. From launching monthly ‘Machine Learning Mondays’ to hand-curating datasets, her team has fostered a culture grounded in collaboration and precision. Her insights demonstrate how a well-crafted data strategy can help organizations unlock AI’s potential while staying aligned with business goals and managing risk.

Mastering Crypto Data - Building analytics infrastructure for fragmentation, volatility and real-time edge

In a rapidly evolving landscape, trading research continues to grow in significance. As trading shifts towards more dynamic, learning-based models, understanding and measuring the incremental value of trader decisions, strategy behaviour and model outputs becomes even more critical. Effective trading research should not only explain what happened but delve deeper to explore the reasons driving this behaviour and identify actionable insights to improve future trading decisions.  

In this 45-minute interactive virtual workshop, we invite industry peers from both buy and sell side financial institutions to join us in a discussion, including a live analysis demo and Q&A session with industry experts and market practitioners, on how to go beyond measure & interpret your data to address real-world challenges in trading research and execution performance.

Real Time Insights within Capital Markets

KX and BestX join forces to discuss the many tech, regulatory, and market factors that are driving change within Best Execution Analytics. Topics covered include the adoption of the cloud, regulatory changes such as MIFID2 and RG97, and process automation.

As BestX co-founder Ollie Jerome shares: “A lot of our very large clients have gone through a similar process of management change over the last two or three years where now you have folks from an Equity background managing the cross-asset desks, including Fixed Income and FX.”

BestX is a 7-year-old technology company that partners with KX. They deliver Best Execution Analytics to help over 30 banks and almost 180 of the world's largest hedge funds asset managers clients to define, achieve and record a process of Best Execution across FX, Fixed Income, Equities, Commodities, Futures, and Crypto. They currently represent about $45 trillion of AUM (Assets Under Management).

Innovation, Change and opportunities in the world of Best Execution Analytics

“Three Innovative Quant Trading Apps and Three Ideas Everyone Should Steal”, is an interactive exploration of three innovative applications on Wall Street that leverage high-frequency data in creative ways for sense-and-respond intelligent action (trade execution), live-streaming research and strategy (for intraday trade strategy adjustment), and continuous risk management. While these use cases may seem particular to the capital markets, they exist everywhere.

This one-hour session with Conor Twomey (KX Head of AI Strategy) and Mark Palmer (Time Magazine Technology Pioneer) will explore these innovative use cases and explain three ideas everyone should steal in any application area dealing with streaming and historical data, and high-value decision-making in real-time.

When it comes to business initiatives driving technology spend, 1 in 3 organizations state that their top initiative over the next 12 months is to improve their data analytics for real-time business intelligence (Enterprise Strategy Group).  

This is largely driven by the fact that when using data to make informed business decisions, it is no longer enough to rely on business intelligence derived solely from historic (big) data. Instead, to keep pace in the digital era, insight must be combined - even supplanted - by continuous real-time data analytics.  

Taking advantage of real-time analytics, however, is not so straightforward. Data is growing, distributed data environments are increasingly dynamic, and with so many vendors and tools to choose from, organizations need help. 

In this discussion, ESG Senior Analyst Mike Leone is joined by Conor Twomey, Head of Customer Success at KX and Kiran Singh, Data Analytics & Data Science Leader at NextEra Energy, to discuss in-depth how organizations can find clarity from the chaos.  

Join them to learn about: 
- The business objectives driving the need for faster decision making through streaming analytics 
- The common challenges preventing success and the capabilities that matter most in streaming analytics platforms 
- What to look for in a modern data platform and how to determine if it is right for your business 
- How the cloud is supporting real-time data initiatives across different industries 
- A customer case study and common use cases for analytics that are delivering proven value for organizations 
- And more

A New Data Frontier: The Value of Streaming Analytics to a Data-first Business
