Each year we co-author the industry-leading ‘State of Open Source in Financial Services’ report in collaboration with FINOS, the Fintech Open Source Foundation. The report looks at the challenges facing the industry in adopting more Open Source technologies – and where the opportunities lie.
Our consultants have extensive experience of designing and implementing custom solutions in complex environments. Here are some recent examples our work with clients in financial services.
With 20% of Saxo Bank’s retail trading taking place through mobile devices, they needed a new platform to work seamlessly across a wide range of devices. Scott Logic helped create SaxoTraderGO, the HTML5 chart, which enables interactive trading.
We partnered with Newcastle Building Society to design, develop and launch its first mobile app which garnered outstanding customer feedback. Initiating their cloud journey, we also worked to establish a robust cloud infrastructure in which the app would be hosted.
Through their coaching style, Scott Logic’s team has empowered individuals in their new DevOps roles.
