Experience You Can Trade On.

Two decades of electronic trading expertise – and a singular focus on the firms that depend upon it.
  • Built by Traders, for Traders

Electronic trading doesn’t stand still, and neither do we. Founded in 2003, Raptor has spent over two decades growing alongside the firms we serve – adapting our products, deepening our capabilities and staying ahead of a market that rewards those who move first.

What’s kept us on the cutting edge is simple: we’re practitioners, not just providers. Our team of industry veterans understands your workflows because we’ve lived them. We know how important it is to be able to pursue opportunities without the heavy re-engineering and operational friction that slow most firms down. The result is an onboarding experience measured in days, not months, and a partnership that evolves as your needs do.

As a private, independent firm, we answer to one constituency: our clients. One hundred percent of our resources go toward delivering the performance, flexibility and service that keep firms trading smarter – today and over time.

Collaborative by nature

You thrive in a team environment where ideas are shared openly and credit is given collectively. You’re comfortable wearing multiple hats and see
cross-functional work as an opportunity for growth.
