Market Infrastructure Solutions
Support your enterprise with world-class financial market infrastructure implementation and support.
Heavily regulated critical financial market infrastructures (FMIs) such as securities exchanges, central security depositories (CSDs) and custodians require systems and processes to ensure the accuracy, integrity, and availability of their services.
SecuritEase third-party accredited, high-availability and throughput system gateways provide our licensees with the confidence of knowing their system connections to FMIs are reliable, stable and always on.
The SecuritEase® ASX Gateway and SecuritEase® AMO Gateway are two such solutions for the Australian cash equity market. To use equivalent other market adaptors, speak to us via the Contact Us page.
SecuritEase® ASX Gateway
The SecuritEase® ASX Gateway is a robust high availability solution that seamlessly integrates your business systems with ASX's CHESS Clearing and Settlement System, whether it’s the current CHESS interface or ASX’s CHESS Replacement TCS BaNCS™ system.
The ASX Gateway is a high-performance, scalable interface supporting a comprehensive suite of CHESS messages for all ASX participant types, ensuring a smooth transition to the new TCS BaNCS™ ISO 20022 messaging interface, which is included at no extra cost for SecuritEase licensees.
The system supports proportionate allocation of issues based on quantity or value and provides two processing models:
1. On-market trades processing; and,
2. Direct registry interaction processing.
Designed to meet the specific needs of Australian market participants, the SecuritEase ASX Gateway offers a powerful combination of intuitive user interfaces and standardised communication protocols, such as ISO 20022, ISO 15022, FIX, and XML. This integration facilitates local market interactions through an intelligent bi-directional interface that handles CHESS message translation and communication with exceptional reliability. The gateway autonomously manages local conversations with CHESS, ensuring seamless operations while keeping your upstream systems informed only when necessary.
With SecuritEase, you benefit from lower costs, higher functionality, and quicker time to market. The gateway’s advanced technology, coupled with expert support from the SecuritEase team, makes it the ideal solution for managing ASX-specific operations like HIN management, DVP settlement, corporate actions, and reconciliation. This ensures that your business is equipped with the tools it needs to operate efficiently and stay ahead in the competitive Australian financial market.
SecuritEase® AMO Gateway
The SecuritEase® ASX AMO Gateway is a robust connectivity solution designed for approved market operators (AMOs) to seamlessly connect their matching engines to CHESS via the ASX’s Trade Acceptance Service (TAS).
The gateway supports major AMOs, including CBOE Australia and the National Stock Exchange (NSX) to ensuring efficient and reliable trade processing.
The AMO Gateway is optimised for high-frequency trade throughput, utilising Microsoft SQL Server for data storage and advanced middleware technologies. It features a user-friendly interface supporting both Microsoft Windows and UNIX/Linux operating systems.
The gateway is fully integrated with ASX’s TAS, accepting FIX messages from upstream systems and supporting essential CHESS messages, ensuring comprehensive and streamlined market connectivity for AMOs.
