TD Securities

TD Securities business in Credit Derivatives was booming. So much so that the back office staff could barely keep up with the legal reporting requirements required by issuers of these financial instruments. This was preventing the business from expanding and placing a cap on revenue.

DataSurge was engaged to consult on database design and to develop a front-end application that would facilitate the generation of a large number of forms to maintain and view the data.

Particularly challenging was the sheer complexity of the underlying database which necessitated a large number of forms to be delivered within a very tight schedule.

Utilising the very latest Microsoft .NET technology, we created a framework whereby additional forms could be generated within in an hour or two instead of a day or two. Furthermore, our proven object-oriented approach resulted in high quality code with a very low defect rate.

As a result, the forms were generated ahead of the other parallel development streams and our mission was accomplished.
