Welcome

Recent market structure and regulatory changes have prompted a dramatic increase in the number of “Dark Pools” – so-called “hidden” sources of liquidity.  How is this impacting the way we trade?   Are there regulatory concerns?  Is transparency or trade execution negatively impacted?    The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association is bringing together leading industry professionals to address these questions and other key issues to help you navigate the changing marketplace.  Panels will offer regulatory and business views on hidden liquidity from both a domestic and global viewpoint.    Discussions also will focus on how firms are handling the fierce competition, innovative trading platforms, and dynamic business strategies (both buy-side and sell-side). 

 

This will be an exceptional strategic and informative symposium designed for representatives from the Broker/Dealer, Institutional Sales and Trading, Technology, ECN, ATS, Crossing Networks, Exchange, Order Management and Execution Consultants and the Legal and Regulatory communities. 

 

Some of the major issues that will be addressed include: 

 

  • Accessing Hidden Liquidity
  • Best Execution
  • Linkages and Connectivity
  • Market Impact
  • Fragmentation/ Lack of Transparency
  • New Trading Platforms and Systems
  • Anonymity
  • Dark Algorithms
