ArkNite FORGE
Enterprise back-office · multi-asset

From the first trade to the financial statements.

The problem

The back office is where trading operations break down.

Multiple brokers, multiple asset classes, and a settlement process held together by spreadsheets. The result is slow, manual, and hard to trust.

Fragmented systems

Brokers and asset classes scattered across spreadsheets and disconnected tools, with no single source of truth.

Manual rekeying

Trades retyped by hand from statements - slow, costly, and a constant source of error.

Reconciliation breaks

Cash and positions don't tie out, and hunting the break swallows the day.

Slow, risky close

Month-end accounting lags the desk, leaving exposure and audit gaps.

How it works

One straight-through path - your team works exceptions.

Trades flow in from the source and through to the books automatically. People supervise and resolve exceptions, instead of pushing every trade by hand.

Every instrument your desk trades, on one platform - not a patchwork of tools.

Accounting & reporting
  • General ledger accounting
  • Trial Balance
  • Profit & Loss
  • Balance Sheet

Most back-office tools stop at settlement. FORGE produces the financial statements.

Inside FORGE

More than a ledger - the modules your desk runs on.

Beyond capture, settlement, and the general ledger, FORGE ships the operational modules a back office lives in every day: vendor approvals, a reporting hub, regulatory filing, and client statement delivery - all on one book of record.

Accounts payable

Vendor invoices & payments, on a live approval pipeline.

Route every vendor invoice and payment through a configurable, multi-level approval matrix - department head to senior approver to CFO - with maker-checker at each stage and straight-through posting to the ledger once approved.

  • Configurable N-level approval matrix
  • Maker-checker enforced at every stage
  • Invoice & payment queues with live status
  • Auto-posting to the GL on final approval

FORGE reports hub
Reporting hub

Every report your desk and clients ask for, in one place.

MIS and management reports, full financial statements, daily activity statements, and stock & position reports - generated from the same book of record, ready to review, export, or send.

  • MIS & management reports
  • Financials - trial balance, BS, P&L
  • Daily activity statements
  • Stock & position reporting
Regulatory reporting

Exchange and regulator files, generated and reconciled.

Produce large-trader and position files for regimes like CME and CFTC on a schedule - with reportable positions, generated files, exception checks, and a day-over-day view of what's new, dropped, or changed.

  • CME / CFTC regime coverage
  • Reportable positions & lot counts
  • File generation with exception alerts
  • Day-over-day new / dropped / changed

FORGE bulk statement sender and batch monitor
Statement delivery

Generate and send statements at scale - and watch every one.

A batch pipeline generates client statements and emails them in bulk, with a live health monitor across jobs and batches, a per-batch status mix, and a real-time delivery stream you can filter to whatever needs attention.

  • Batch pipeline monitor - jobs & success rate
  • Per-batch status mix & health
  • Real-time delivery stream
  • Filter by failed / pending / OK

FAQ

Questions teams ask first.

Will FORGE replace the systems we already run?

No. FORGE sits between your upstream sources and downstream systems and connects through standard, two-way interfaces. You keep your GL/ERP, treasury, risk, and reporting tools - FORGE removes the manual work between them and feeds them clean, reconciled data.

Which asset classes does it support?

Futures, options, FX forwards, CFDs, stocks, equities, bonds, and equity options - all on one platform, with multi-currency settlement handled per leg.

Does it do accounting, or just settlement?

Both. FORGE carries trades through to a full general ledger and produces Trial Balance, Profit & Loss, and Balance Sheet that tie back to source - not just settlement records.

How does capture work?

FORGE captures trades in real time via drop copy from sources such as CME STP and CQG, plus broker feeds, market/reference data, and file import - so there's no manual rekeying from statements.

What does onboarding look like?

Phased, not big-bang. We map your sources and systems, run a walkthrough on a day of your own trades, then onboard step by step into your existing architecture.
