Working From Home or Remotely?

Stay Connected With This Workflow Collaboration Tool

WHEN THE SEPT. 11, 2001, tragedy occurred, one of us was responsible for a credit derivatives team at a major global investment bank in New York. In the days following the attack, the team returned to work in offices south of Manhattan’s Canal Street and later at our disaster recovery site across the river in New Jersey. With five of us huddled around a desk with one phone and one computer, we lacked the ability to look at the markets and analyze opportunities—or even have a productive discussion.

Today, with the Covid-19 pandemic circling the globe, many companies are still not fully equipped to handle an emergency that is requiring many of us to work from home.

IF YOU NEED TO WORK remotely, we have a solution for you. You can use this approach in your existing workflow, whatever that maybe, but to get a sense of how it works, download our Launchpad “2020 FI Credit” template to test-drive it. You can customize the template, loading it with your portfolio names or another list of bonds, and focus on market analysis and making investment or trading decisions.
