Trading Architecture Asia 2012

Trading Architecture Asia 2012 conference brings together technical managers and the commercial decision makers to discuss strategies to improve automation and low latency performance while increasing trading profits, improving risk management and achieving regulatory compliance.

Trading Architecture Asia is the world’s largest conference and that brings together technical managers and the commercial decision makers who are responsible for trading, front and back office and related enterprise architecture upgrades. They come to network and share their experiences on how to maximize the advantages of new technologies to improve automation and low latency performance while increasing trading profits, improving risk management and achieving regulatory compliance.

It is colocated with ExchangeTech Evolution Day designed specifically for trading venues involved with technical upgrades and who seek to educate their clients on how to take advantage of improved services while learning from other markets on how they respond to competitive challenges.

The overall show is much bigger than our previous events featuring over 120 speakers across a much wider range of topics. It includes dedicated streams and topics for the key professionals who help the IT managers to build world class trading platforms.

This includes:
Buy-side and Sell-Side Heads of Trading
Operational and Trading Risk Mangers
Compliance and Surveillance Managers
Market Data Managers and Data Architects
Heads of Operations, Clearing and Settlement
Heads of Multi Asset Platforms: FX, Fixed Income and Derivatives

What’s new and improved?
Trading Architecture is now in its fourth year and once again the event returns to Hong Kong. But this year we are doing things very differently. The program has been expanded to take account of the wider perspective trading technologists need to have regarding the upgrades required across the trading suite. It's a very big event covering 3 days, incorporating streams across each day. We are totally dedicated to perfecting the art and science of automated high speed trading. That’s pretty unusual for an event but spot on for IT trading specialists.

You can see how we introduce topics that fit a much wider group of people who have to work with the technology team. This includes: the traders who need to understand the new ‘best execution’ technology; the data infrastructure guys who have to manage the data deluge; the compliance and risk guys who have to get their heads around the new surveillance and control systems; and the trade processing guys who look after the clearing and settlement systems. It will be useful for you to bring these people with you – even if they just stay for one day. It will save you having to repeat all the learning points that they could have picked up themselves. Make life easier for the team and yourself.
