Saadi Abbas of Cambridge, England is the creator and the owner to the Capital Market and Wholesale Securities Operational Model known as the Cambridge Model 2009 (CM2009).

The Model and its associated methods, frameworks, techniques and services are the result of 20 years of an international development programme over the course of many practical client assignments within the financial institutions across the world.

The Model has been applied to deliver a wide range of practical business and IT solutions for many financial institutions such as Citibank (New York), Royal Bank of Scotland, Standard Chartered Bank (Asia), Northern Trust Company (USA), Jardine Fleming Securities (Hong Kong), M&G Investment Group, Gartmore Investment Management, NatWest Capital Market, ABSA Bank (South Africa), UBS, Barclays Global Securities, and Invesco Asset Management.

The Model was also licensed as an "off-the-shell" to Citibank (New York), Gartmore Investment Management, M&G Investment Group, Arab Bank and ABSA Bank (South Africa).

For the last 4 years the Cambridge Model has been enhanced and extended to include the business of purchasing securities on a wholesale basis from large institutional issuers and to distribute and sell these securities to smaller institutions and funds. The Model is renamed CM2009.

CM2009 can now uniquely and efficiently enable their users to conduct business in the trading and capital markets Market arena and aims to be as simple as having the ability to purchase securities on a wholesale basis from large institutional issuers at best prices by utilising the WHOLESALE PRICING MODEL component of CM2009 and faster and sell these securities faster to smaller institutions and funds on a segmented basis.
