Speaking on Leadership Xchange: Trade data optimisation
Benjamin Mahe serves as the Head of Electronic Trading and Data at AXA Investment Management, overseeing the automation of execution and trading data. With a focus on FX and responsibility for both high- and low-frequency teams, including wheels and algorithms for equities (EQ), Benjamin collaborates closely with the Fixed Income (FI) team to drive automation and enhance data analytics. In his team, there is a particular emphasis on data-focused strategies to minimise the time spent on order handling. Harmonising practices across different locations is a key priority, especially in the context of RFQs for EU ETFs, Govvies, and FX. To ensure a homogeneous framework, Benjamin leads a business coordination team dedicated to analysing data, identifying duplicates, resolving data quality issues, and building analytics based on these insights.
