Marzano founded Metrixx in 2009 as a strategic solution to evaluate traded derivative instruments. Metrixx is designed to assess and interpret, in real-time, the inherent cost of money, i.e., the interest rate cause and effects on listed exchange traded derivatives and OTC products. This capability enables users to understand the impact of interest rates on any listed derivative. John Lothian News Interviews Metrixx Founder Jim Marzano on the Intersection of Bond Analytics and Social Media Jim Marzano was the first person to trade the Chicago Board of Trade’s 30-year bond contract in 1977. Today, he’s looking to create another first as the founder and CEO of Metrixx — a bond, fx and commodities analytics company that also integrates social media for the trading community. Marzano spoke with JLN editor-in-chief Jim Kharouf about Metrixx, what it brings to the analytics space and how social media can help replace some of that market knowledge that used to be on the trading floor.
