Jefferies Outsourced Trading selects TS Imagine to Power Order and Execution Management for Fixed Income

WHY THIS MATTERS:
Outsourced trading has shifted from a cost-saving option to a strategic operating model for asset managers navigating tighter margins, regulatory pressure, and increasingly complex fixed income markets. As liquidity fragments across venues and products, firms need infrastructure that integrates execution, portfolio management, and risk oversight in real time. Running these workflows across disconnected systems introduces latency, operational risk, and reduced transparency—particularly in fixed income, where pricing and liquidity dynamics can change rapidly.

Jefferies’ adoption of an integrated order and execution management platform reflects a broader institutional move toward consolidated trading stacks. By unifying trading, analytics, and risk monitoring within a single environment, outsourced trading desks can offer institutional-grade capabilities without clients needing to invest heavily in their own infrastructure. For buy-side firms, this model delivers scalability, governance, and performance oversight while preserving flexibility. As demand for outsourced trading grows globally, the ability to deliver seamless, cross-asset execution supported by embedded risk intelligence is becoming a competitive differentiator.

TS Imagine, a leading provider of trading, portfolio, and risk management solutions for capital markets, today announced that global investment banking firm Jefferies has selected TS Imagine’s integrated order and execution management platform to support its Fixed Income Outsourced Trading offering. 

By adopting TS Imagine’s end-to-end solution for its Fixed Income Outsourced Trading operations, Jefferies leads a growing group of firms unifying trading, portfolio management, and risk oversight within a single scalable platform. This integrated infrastructure streamlines workflows, elevates execution quality, and strengthens risk monitoring across diverse fixed income markets. 

Rob Flatley, CEO of TS Imagine, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Jefferies globally as they expand their differentiated fixed income outsourced trading capabilities. Our platform is purpose-built and tailored for Jefferies to meet the sophisticated needs of its institutional clients, and we look forward to supporting Jefferies with cutting-edge tools that increase client efficiency, insight, and performance now and into the future.” 

Joram Siegel, Global Head of Fixed Income Outsourced Trading at Jefferies, said: “We’ve designed our outsourced trading platform around our clients’ needs. Built on a robust trading infrastructure that combines experienced professionals, leading technology, and operational support—we provide clients with institutional-grade capabilities without significant fixed investment. With TS Imagine as an integral component of our technology stack, we can deliver flexibility and scale quickly, helping clients execute efficiently and support their growth. It’s a winning formula: By integrating execution, risk management, and market insights in one unified environment, we help clients act faster, capture opportunities, and achieve consistent results.” 

TS Imagine’s platform combines advanced order and execution management with robust portfolio and risk analytics, enabling investment banks and asset managers to seamlessly connect trading strategies with real-time market intelligence. Jefferies’ selection of TS Imagine maximizes global trading opportunities, creates sustainable value for clients–and is a major step in Jefferies’ systemic adoption of next-generation technology for competitive advantage.   

FF NEWS TAKE:
Fixed income outsourced trading is no longer just about execution support—it’s about delivering a fully institutional framework without the institutional overhead. Jefferies’ move signals that scale and integration now matter as much as trader expertise.

TS Imagine’s platform effectively becomes the digital backbone of Jefferies’ outsourced trading proposition, tying together execution quality, portfolio visibility, and risk management in one stack. That’s crucial in fixed income markets, where transparency and speed can materially impact performance.

The wider theme? Capital markets infrastructure is consolidating. Banks and asset managers increasingly want fewer systems doing more—connected, scalable, and analytics-driven. Firms that can combine human expertise with unified, real-time technology environments will define the next phase of outsourced trading growth.
