TabbFORUM - Where Capital Markets Speak

High Speed Data And OTC Markets

The world is awash in data. But rather than bemoaning the flood of information and what to do with it, this Spotlight Series, sponsored by Progress Software, will feature content on how capital markets participants are reacting to the opportunity – and threat – of high speed data. The series will have a particular focus on the OTC markets including high-level content covering FX, derivatives, fixed income and energy futures, and will also cover similar challenges in the exchange-traded markets.
