Nasdaq Selected To Support ASX In Post-Trade Technology Overhaul

NEW YORK & SYDNEY, March 1 (Bernama) -- Nasdaq (Nasdaq:NDAQ) and Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) have announced that Nasdaq will replace ASX's existing equities and equity options clearing technology platforms - a significant element of ASX's technology transformation program outlined in February 2015. This technology development will be undertaken on Nasdaq's Genium INET Clearing platform, which is already in use at ASX for futures clearing. It reflects ASX's commitment to consolidate its number of post-trade platforms and improve efficiencies for its customers.

ASX also recently went live with Sentinel Risk Manager, Nasdaq's post-trade risk management solution. Phase 1 - the default management component - is now in operation. Once fully implemented, the new next generation platform will provide ASX with a single, real-time risk management system across both its clearing houses and all asset classes, including real-time margin calculation and related customer risk analytics.
