Market Infrastructure & Securities Services

Delivery experience from more than 80 market connections, applied on the operator's side of the market.

Overview

Exchanges, clearing houses, depositories, custodians and fund administrators run the machinery the rest of the market depends on. Change is demanding on the operator's side: platforms must be replaced while members keep trading and settling, connectivity programmes have to land across many participants at once, and service levels are contractual.

We work for the operators themselves: platform change for venues and CCPs, post-trade and clearing operations for custodians and administrators, participant connectivity programmes, operational resilience, and the regulatory change that arrives with the operator's role. The delivery record behind this work includes more than 80 market connections built to venues, CCPs and custodians — experience from the member side of the same interfaces.

Engagements run from a single platform or connectivity programme to sustained delivery capacity inside an operator's change portfolio, with your own teams involved throughout so the capability stays in-house.

What we do

Replacing or upgrading a matching engine, clearing system or settlement platform affects every participant. We plan and deliver operator-side platform change with member impact managed from the start: specification, testing windows, migration rehearsal and cutover with fallback.

What to expect

The team working on your side has delivered against venue, CCP and custodian interfaces from the member side, so participant impact is anticipated early rather than discovered late. Work is planned around market hours, testing windows and participant readiness, and your own people are part of the delivery team throughout, so the capability stays in-house after we leave.

We work as a delivery partner inside the operator's own change portfolio as readily as on a single programme.
