Empaxis eliminates your frustration with middle-office and back-office outsourcing services. Our portfolio accounting experts work in a tightly-controlled, results-oriented environment, processing your data accurately and securely. Your firm will gain flexibility, and increase operational efficiency, reducing costs by up to 50 percent.
What is the difference between middle office and back office?
Financial institutions are generally divided into three “offices” – front, middle and back.
The front office is comprised of sales and services, with both individual and corporate clients. All pre-trade and execution activities are done by front office associates. It is generally considered the money-making part of the organization.
The middle office offers support to the front office in compliance, law, risk management and technology. It also includes corporate treasury, financial control and strategic management. The middle office makes sure the front office is operating within safe parameters as it also tracks profits and losses.
The back office is the engine driving the organization. It is involved in accounting, clearances, human resources, records maintenance, regulatory compliance and technology. Job titles associated with the back office are often classified under “Operations.” The back office is sometimes used to describe all jobs that do not directly generate revenue.
