Voice trading has traditionally depended on hardware-based turrets and has, therefore, had limited usage in offsite scenarios.

The next generation of turrets, which offer modern, physical hardware for the trading floor and software-based turrets for anywhere else, will boost digital resilience and future-proof trading for the digital era.

IDC’s new paper, sponsored by BT, discusses influences on the future of voice trading and the key benefits of having a next-generation voice trading solution.

Here are the five drivers it identifies for the future of voice trading:

• the focus on digital resilience
• digital transformation (DX) initiatives
• the growing integration and interaction with an increasingly open ecosystem
• the modernisation of trading infrastructure
• cost efficiency.
