HSBC Bank
Mr. Kevin

FPL
Global Technical Co-Chair
Summary:
The FIX
Protocol is the industry-driven messaging standard that is
changing the face of the global financial services sector,
as buy-side and
sell-side firms, exchanges and service providers use the
protocol to
transact in an electronic, transparent, cost efficient and
timely manner.
FIX has
become the de-facto messaging standard for pre- trade
and trade communication globally within
the Equity markets, and is
experiencing rapid expansion into the post-trade
space, supporting
Straight
-Through- Processing (STP) from Indication-of-Interest (IOI) to
Allocations and Confirmations.
From this foundation, the protocol is
gathering increased momentum, as it continues to expand
across the
Foreign Exchange, Fixed Income, and Derivative markets.
The
complimentary FIX Adapted for STreamingsm (FAST)
Protocol
optimises communication in the
electronic exchange of financial data.
FAST
delivers an efficient data compression algorithm, which has been designed specifically for the high-volume
securities markets. FAST
thrives on large quantities of data that share similarities
in content and
structure, presenting significant opportunities for the
global capital markets.
Attendees of
this session will benefit from developing a stronger
understanding of how FIX can be used for electronic trading
and a
deeper comprehension of FAST, the benefits it delivers and
an insight into its technical architecture.
