Eventus Systems
Leading global provider of multi-asset class trade surveillance and market risk solutions
About Eventus Systems
Eventus Systems, founded in 2014 and headquartered in Austin, Texas, provides a comprehensive suite of financial risk management solutions. The company originated as an offshoot of the proprietary trading firm RGM Advisors, established by capital markets experts who identified a gap in the market for a trade surveillance solution capable of handling the high frequency and volume of modern trading. CEO Travis Schwab, a key figure in the company's foundation, brought extensive experience from senior roles at firms like RGM Securities, Trading Technologies, and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME Group). This background as compliance practitioners and capital market experts deeply informs the company's approach to product development and client service.

Eventus operates on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) business model, providing its services through its flagship product, the Validus platform. The company serves a diverse global client base that includes tier-1 banks, broker-dealers, futures commission merchants (FCMs), proprietary trading groups, exchanges, and digital asset venues. Revenue is generated through subscriptions to the Validus platform, with the company demonstrating significant growth, having more than doubled its revenue in 2022 from the previous year. Eventus has successfully raised substantial capital to fuel its expansion, including a $10.5 million Series A in 2020 and a $30 million Series B in 2021.
The Validus platform is a multi-asset class solution designed to maximize the efficiency of regulatory operations. It offers trade surveillance, market risk monitoring, algorithmic trading oversight, and anti-money laundering (AML) transaction monitoring. The platform processes billions of messages daily in near real-time across various asset classes, including equities, options, futures, foreign exchange (FX), fixed income, and digital assets. Key features of Validus include its ability to reduce false positives through automation and supervised machine learning, an intuitive workflow for managing alerts, and advanced tools for investigation and reporting. It can be deployed in the cloud or on-premises and is designed to be highly customizable to meet specific client needs. In early 2023, Eventus expanded its offerings with the launch of Validus AML (VAML), an end-to-end anti-money laundering platform that combines behavioral detection with rules-based logic.
