Green Hat announces latest release of ActiveRTS for users of Realtime Systems (RTS)

LONDON - January 23rd, 2003 - Green Hat Consulting today released the latest version of ActiveRTS for users of Realtime Systems (RTS). ActiveRTS allows key financial data to be accessed in real-time from Excel, Access and other COM-enabled products. For the first time, users are free to build their own risk management tools and pricing models without waiting for software vendors to support them.

ActiveRTS supports orders, trades, accounts, prices, history, skews and theoretical values. It is supplied complete with some example spreadsheets, allowing users with only a basic knowledge to get started quickly. Useful features remove most of the pain from creating trade reports. Using ActiveRTS, our customers have created all manner of applications from risk management tools to automatic pricing sheets, inserting quotes on their behalf into the market.

ActiveRTS is one of a family of products produced by Green Hat Consulting to add value to the deployments of products and solutions from Realtime Systems Group to the world’s electronic trading community.
