Banking Technology to host webinar on ultra low latency

In the financial sector, executing trades milliseconds, and even microseconds, ahead of the competition can mean the difference between making or losing huge sums of money. Smart order routing, algo trading, low cost execution venues, low latency and dark liquidity have all promised great returns, but have placed even greater demands on trading firms' systems and infrastructures.

Banking Technology invites you to a webinar on this topic, held in conjunction with Ciena and SmartPool, to discuss the implications of what some have called a technology arms race. Hosted by Banking Technology editor David Bannister, the webinar will feature industry practitioners from well-known trading firms who will be addressing questions such as:

• Has technology delivered or fallen behind the hype curve?
• Has technology added to the cost of doing business?
• What regulatory threats are there to current business models?
• Has the new trading landscape left gaps for technology to fill?

Learn more about the implications that technology advancement has brought to financial services trading business and how technology can transfrom a network into a competitive advantage.
