FlexTrade Systems is an institutional trading technology company, founded in 1996, that builds multi-asset execution and order management software for the buy-side and sell-side. Its flagship buy-side product, FlexTRADER EMS, gives asset managers and hedge funds granular control over trade execution across equities, fixed income, FX, options, futures, and digital assets, while FlexONE OEMS combines order management with built-in risk and compliance checks. On the sell-side, FlexOMS, ColorPalette (a hosted equities OMS), and MOSAIC support market makers, program traders, derivatives desks, and retail brokers. The platform is built on an open, broker-neutral architecture with connectivity to 50+ exchanges and trading venues, and is complemented by analytics and automation tools such as FlexAlgos, FlexTCA (transaction cost analysis), FlexAlgoWheel, and FlexStrategyServer. FlexTrade markets itself around adaptability — letting trading desks tailor workflows to their own strategies rather than conforming to a rigid platform.
