The partnership will enable shared clients to effortlessly navigate from the discovery of new issues to evaluating liquidity and executing trades—all within a single, seamless application ecosystem.
Streamlining Workflow for Financial Professionals
Christopher Rodriguez, Chief Client Officer at DirectBooks, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, "We are pleased to welcome Trumid as our newest connectivity partner. Our goal is to enhance primary market workflows by meeting clients where they are. This new relationship showcases our commitment to providing seamless access via the platforms and workflows our clients utilize daily."
On the other side, Jason Quinn, Chief Product Officer and Global Head of Sales at Trumid, highlighted the advantages for clients. He remarked, "By integrating DirectBooks' primary issuance workflows into Trumid's platform, we are enabling a more connected experience for our shared clients. This integration not only extends our workflow capabilities but also enhances our clients' experiences as they navigate the complexities of trading new issues in the secondary market."
Trumid's Full Self Trading (FST™) allows clients to automate trades of newly issued securities while utilizing market intelligence and liquidity available through Trumid's extensive network.

Trumid's focus on providing agile technology, comprehensive market expertise, and a user-friendly platform reflects their commitment to evolving in line with market needs. DirectBooks, with its backing from major players in the banking sector, is leveraging its technological capabilities to further simplify the primary issuance process for fixed-income securities.
This collaboration is an exciting chapter in financial technology, representing an important step toward united efforts to enhance transparency, reduce redundancies, and improve overall efficiency in trading workflows.
