Celebrating 10 Years of Symphony: Leading the Way in Fintech
Symphony turns 10! Discover how we’re transforming the financial industry through trust, passion, and cutting-edge technology.
Since we launched Symphony in 2014, we’ve been continuously evolving: introducing new features, inviting our customers to collaborate in person at our Innovate events, launching Symphony Market Solutions, and more.
As we look ahead to our next chapter, now is the perfect moment to refresh the logo and overall look of Symphony. Our original logo introduced us to the world and represented our brand during the company’s early days. Its multicolored pinwheel design was a reflection of the consortium that worked together to launch Symphony: 15 disparate financial institutions collaborating to solve a common problem with how their organizations were communicating.
Five years later, Symphony is still the same solution, but we are not the same organization. Symphony has grown – not only in terms of our size but in our experience and vision as well.
Our new logo proudly represents the company we are today. Visual elements of a shield, a padlock, and the letter ‘S’ speak to our company’s identity and reflects our core values. We designed this logo to be an emblem of privacy, security, and trustworthiness (with a few superhero vibes). Last but not least, its clean, simple aesthetic reflects the modern, sleek Symphony of today:
You can expect to see our new logo on the redesigned Symphony website and within the Symphony product in the coming weeks. This change is the first in a series of forthcoming updates and announcements we’ll be sharing this October at Innovate 2019. We’re looking forward eagerly to our next chapter, and are excited to raise a glass in celebration of our fifth anniversary, our new look, and much more.

FDC3 aims to simplify communication between different financial applications. Traditionally, traders juggle multiple displays, manually transferring data. FDC3 enables automatic context sharing between these applications, saving time and reducing errors. Common uses span from pre-trade to post-trade activities.
Symphony, a member of the open-source foundation FINOS, is deeply involved in developing FDC3 and promoting its use in global capital markets. Our focus is standardizing integration APIs, giving customers flexibility in choosing their Desktop Integration Platform provider while supporting FDC3.
The 2020s are an unprecedented decade of disruption and every market participant is either the disruptor…or the disrupted. Today, we stand at the precipice of artificial general intelligence and every well-run organization should be actively seeking to disrupt themselves right now. Symphony has been able to remain almost a decade ahead of disruption by understanding one simple truth—thriving through disruption. This demands three things from your technology: resiliency, stability and flexibility.
