Global Trading Analytics, LLC and Babelfish Analytics Announce Merger
29.6.2020 15:03:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Global Trading Analytics (GTA), a leader in the Trading Cost Analysis (TCA) field, and Babelfish Analytics, the creator of the Venue and Routing Analysis field have announced plans to join forces. GTA supplies multi-asset class, parent-level TCA to Pension Plans, Investment Managers, Banks and Brokerages in multiple countries. Babelfish provides routing analysis, which reviews every action a broker takes in executing an order, even unfilled routes. The two firms together will provide the first solution that attributes cost to every step of the investment process.
“We are very pleased to announce this merger with Babelfish Analytics. From the first day we met Linda and Jeff from Babelfish, the synergies were apparent,” said John A. Halligan, President of GTA. “The more we explored combining the two firms, the more we realized how complementary the firms were, and with very little overlap.”
“This merger will allow us to link portfolio-level analytics with routing mechanics, which will help fully attribute the source of cost,” said Linda Giordano, CEO of Babelfish Analytics. “We are excited to partner with GTA to increase our scale, as routing analytics becomes standardized across Europe and the need for enhanced 606 compliance reporting in the U.S. is realized.”
“Joining together is a logical move as it finally provides the marketplace with a complete solution,” said Jeff Alexander, President of Babelfish Analytics. “There is no other TCA firm that offers such a comprehensive suite of products, especially in an unconflicted manner.”

RecVue, the leader in billing and revenue management solutions, today announced the evolution of RecVue RevOS into the industry's first Agentic Revenue Operating System. In an architectural shift, the now-native agentic revenue management platform moves revenue operations beyond AI-assisted workflows to fully governed, autonomous execution with more than 50 purpose-built agents that work across contracts, invoices and payment data to predict risk, surface anomalies and escalate exceptions throughout the quote-to-cash lifecycle.
