The 4.0.0 release is a custom trade bond workflow powered by Aeron. In this initial MVP version, the buy side can discover bonds, from a list of well known bonds and then initiatie an RFQ. The application includes the presence of a sell-side, in our case ‘Adaptive Bank’, which will receive a notification for the RFQ, with ability to respond or pass. Following the design patterns of Reactive Trader but with enhancements, a tile will be created, which will stream the prices from those parties that have responded to the RFQ. The user from the buy side can then accept the preferred price within the tile, which will then execute the trade and show the confirmation on the blotter.
