Once complete, the Asean trading link will electronically interconnect the participating Asean exchanges to facilitate cross border order routing and trading, thereby allowing investors and members to access multiple Asean markets from their domicile country. The trading network will enable participating Asean Exchanges to connect to external order routing networks in order to attract new order flows into the Asean equities market.
Duncan Niederauer, CEO of NYSE Euronext, said: “My colleagues at NYSE Euronext and I greatly value the opportunity to provide our leading-edge technology and proven expertise to this historic initiative in an increasingly important part of the world. The ASEAN Trading Link will strengthen the competitiveness of the member exchanges and enable them to better serve their customers. National and regional interest will be well served by giving investors greater access to global capital to facilitate new development, growth and wealth creation.”
Francisco Edralin Lim, president and CEO of Philippine Stock Exchange, said: “As the host of the 10th ASEAN Exchanges CEOs Meeting and on behalf of the participating Exchanges, I am pleased to announce the selection of NYSE Technologies as the vendor of choice for the ASEAN Trading Link,” Mr. Lim said. “NYSE Technologies brings to the table vast experience in the Exchange solutions business and we are confident that they will deliver cutting edge solutions that meet all our requirements. We are also excited about the possibilities of leveraging their extensive order routing networks to bring order flow into the ASEAN markets.”
Underpinning the NYSE Technologies’ solution will be a resilient networking infrastructure that will interconnect the Asean member exchanges and through the exchanges, their respective communities. The solution will include services that leverage this network to provide integrated market data feeds from all the participating markets and a standardized entry point for trading. The solution will integrate with the global SFTI community, giving NYSE Technologies’ STFI members streamlined access to trading in the ASEAN Trading Link markets.
