Master data / Casper studio

One clean record for every trade.

Hall Trading unifies counterparties, contracts, products, and prices into one governed record — matched, deduplicated, and served to every system on the desk.

62%

of the data a trading desk touches every day is keyed in twice — once per system. Master data ends the re-entry.

2.1M+

trade records under one governed identity

99.2%

entity matching accuracy on real desk data

38

source systems unified into one record set

−58%

time spent reconciling duplicate records

Platform

Four modules on one record.

Identity, contract, reconciliation, and governance — each module reads and writes the same golden record.

01

Counterparty identity

One record per legal entity, matched across names, tax IDs, and jurisdictions — no more three spellings of the same firm.

  • entity resolution
  • tax IDs
  • jurisdictions
02

Contract & product master

Agreements, terms, and product definitions live once and flow to pricing, risk, and settlement — always the same version.

  • terms
  • versions
  • product master
03

Reconciliation rules

Automated matching against invoices, confirmations, and internal records surfaces true breaks instead of re-keying the same data.

  • auto-match
  • break report
  • audit trail
04

Governance & lineage

Approval workflows, field-level roles, and full lineage show where every value came from — and who changed it.

  • approvals
  • lineage
  • audit log

Method

Four weeks to a golden record.

A fixed path: map, build, wire, govern. Your stewards approve every survivorship rule.

01

Map the record set

Week 1

We inventory every system holding counterparty, contract, or price data and score how badly they disagree.

02

Build the golden record

Weeks 2–3

Matching rules unify duplicates into one governed record, with survivorship rules you approve.

03

Wire the consumers

Week 4

Pricing, risk, settlement, and reporting systems read from the master record through APIs and exports.

04

Run the governance loop

Ongoing

Stewardship queues, lineage, and audit reports keep the record clean as the desk changes around it.

End state

  • One counterparty identity across every system
  • Contract terms served from a single version
  • Automated reconciliation with a clean break report
  • Lineage and audit for every field, forever

Engagement

Pilot, scale, embed.

Three phases, one direction of travel. Every desk starts small and grows the record it governs.

Pilot

01

One asset class · one system of record

A focused build: unify counterparty and product master for a single desk, wire one consumer, prove the break report.

  • Golden record for one desk
  • One consumer wired
  • Break report live

Scale

02

Multi-desk · full record set

Roll the master across desks and asset classes, add contract and price data, and put every consumer on the same record.

  • All desks on one record
  • Contract & price masters
  • Governance workflows

Embed

03

Custom · data operations partnership

A resident data team operates the master with you — stewardship, exception handling, and continuous quality work.

  • Resident data stewards
  • Custom lineage & reporting
  • Quarterly quality review

Studio

A small studio that builds master data for desks.

HALL TRADING LLC works from Casper, Wyoming, serving trading desks across the U.S. The people you meet are the people who build.

01

One record, one version

If two systems disagree, the master decides — visibly, with lineage, not by whoever keyed it last.

02

Survivorship is a decision

Which field wins is approved by your stewards, encoded as rules, and auditable. No silent overrides.

03

Consumers stay yours

The master serves your pricing, risk, and settlement systems through APIs and exports you control.
