Waters Technology has announced the winners of the Sell-Side Technology awards. We are pleased to announce that the award for ‘Best implementation at a Sell-Side Firm’ went to ZKB’s eTradingPro, a browser based Structured Products trading system delivered in partnership with Caplin.

Thus far, users have been impressed with the application’s intuitive interface and enhanced response time compared to its predecessor.
