Manage complex distribution networks, commissions, and campaign activity
Structured products’ distribution often involves multiple participants: issuers, distributors, introducers, advisors, brokers, and end clients. Transactions may generate commissions, retrocessions, fees, and margins that must be tracked consistently throughout the lifecycle of a campaign.
LexiFi provides a unified framework to manage these workflows, from transaction capture and commission calculation to campaign monitoring, reporting, and invoicing.
The platform allows institutions to model complex distribution structures while maintaining a consolidated view of revenues, profitability, and commercial activity.
Multi-Trade transaction management
A single client transaction may involve multiple counterparties, execution prices, commission beneficiaries, or intermediary fees.
The Multi-Trade Module allows users to record all components of a transaction within a single structure while automatically calculating weighted average prices, commissions, margins, and profitability.
The module supports both agency and principal business models, as well as hybrid configurations combining execution spreads and commission-based revenues.
Key capabilities include:
- Multiple buy-side and sell-side trades
- Front and running commissions
- Commission retrocessions
- Introducer and intermediary management
- Margin and profitability calculations
- Revenue allocation across teams and counterparties
For clients with simpler requirements, transactions can also be captured individually through the simple trade page, by Excel import, or from an external source of positions. The Multi-Trade Module remains the most complete option whenever a deal involves several legs, counterparties, or commission beneficiaries.
Campaign Monitoring
Structured product distribution is often organized around campaigns involving multiple products, distributors, and subscription periods.
LexiFi allows users to group transactions into campaigns and monitor activity throughout the subscription process. Campaign dashboards provide real-time visibility on:
- Subscription volumes
- Assets raised
- Product allocation
- Distributor activity
- Commission generation
- Campaign profitability
This allows sales and management teams to monitor commercial performance without relying on external spreadsheets or manual consolidations.
Commission and revenue management
Commissions can be calculated, tracked, and analysed throughout the transaction lifecycle. The platform supports:
- Front commissions
- Running commissions
- Retrocessions
- Distributor remuneration
- Introducer fees
- Revenue-sharing arrangements
Commission information remains connected to the underlying transactions, ensuring consistency across reporting, accounting, and invoicing processes.
Profitability analysis
LexiFi provides a consolidated view of profitability across transactions, distributors, campaigns, products, and business lines.
Users can analyse:
- Gross and net revenues
- Commission expenses
- Trading margins
- Campaign performance
- Distributor profitability
The same calculations are reused throughout the platform, eliminating reconciliation issues between operational and management reporting.
Reporting and invoicing
All brokerage and campaign data can be reused directly in reporting tools, dashboards, exports, and APIs.
-
Track P&L by sales, introducer, desk, or time period.
-
Monitor commissions to pay and to receive.
-
Visualize notional traded and margin evolution over time.

The platform can also generate invoice data based on commissions, fees, or revenue-sharing agreements, helping automate administrative processes and reduce operational overhead.
