Our promise:
Taming your technical tangles
When did the dealing room change from a pressure cooker filled with colour and noise – “Buy! Buy!” “Sell! Sell!” – to row after row of computer screens? Electronic trading just kind of… happened. The world of trading accepted a few bits here, a few bytes there – and then, all of a sudden, things got tangled.
At Varrlyn, we take processes apart. We clarify, design and implement the most intricate financial IT projects; as a complete custom-designed package, or in parts. If the tangle turns out too wild to tame, we "simply" build a new IT landscape from scratch.
Our aim is to make our clients’ systems run without a hitch. We help financial institutions with system implementations and provide some serious application support, concentrating on the way they process transactions and deploy reporting applications.
