  • Encourages exchange market differentiation across more value added service areas, such as Straight Through Processing (STP), latency, trading platforms and strategies, corporate services and increased data offerings.
  • Enables exchanges to take advantage of economies of scale and provide broader access.
  • Generates additional revenues the business requires.
  • Avoids the cost of defining a new protocol that is considerable and continues for the lifetime of the product.
  • Exchanges can pass on the measureable benefits and/or lower costs to its members.
