SGX: Self-Trade Prevention Enhancement

January 22

SGX is planning to deploy Titan Service Release 8.5 to production on January 22 for the purpose of enhancing their Self Trade Prevention (STP) functionality. Changes will allow for an additional tier of STP checking at a new “Trading Group” level, while still retaining their existing STP functionality.

TT will fully support Service Release 8.5, and new versions of TT software that support this feature will be deployed to UAT in the coming weeks.

Use of SGX Service Release 8.5 features will require no new changes or additional configurations on the TT platform. Messages that are currently in use with existing SGX STP features will continue to be the same after the update.

SGX currently plans to make the new STP Trading Groups effective in production starting from February 8. Customers wishing to make immediate use of Trading Groups in production must email their requests to [email protected] by January 29. If customers wish to test the new feature in UAT, requests for Trading Group setup in the SGX Member Test Environment must be sent to [email protected].

High level details on this initiative from the exchange:

Nasdaq is migrating our Nordic Equity Derivatives markets, currently on the Genium INET platform, to a new Global Derivatives Trading System based on INET technology that leverages our Nasdaq Financial Framework (NFF). This Nasdaq next-generation platform is a solution based on global financial standards, for stable, flexible and high-speed services.
