2024 – Il punto di svolta per la trasformazione delle infrastrutture di mercato

“Gli scambi tradizionali a livello globale si trovano in una congiuntura critica”, osserva
“Prospettive per il settore bancario e dei mercati finanziari 2024” di Deloitte rapporto. “Le scelte strategiche che faranno ora potrebbero determinare se continueranno a crescere – o addirittura a mantenere – la quota di mercato e a ottenere profitti più elevati”. 

Gli odierni fornitori di infrastrutture di mercato devono affrontare la crescente complessità e imprevedibilità. Queste pressioni a loro volta intensificano la necessità di modernizzare urgentemente le infrastrutture obsolete e affrontare il debito tecnologico.

2024 is the year, I believe, we will bear witness to the much-anticipated tipping point for transformation of market infrastructure. The question now is: How can you ensure that your technological upgrade will be delivered within a timeframe that secures
your competitiveness?

Scelte difficili

In the rapidly maturing and advanced landscape of trading technology, staying current is no longer optional. It has become imperative that outdated infrastructure for day-to-day operations is replaced, ensuring the robustness and endurance of the overall
technological framework.

Yet strategic choices, particularly concerning market infrastructure technology, are not always straightforward. Legacy providers, in particular, find themselves constrained by outdated technology – from constant project delays and cost concerns, to the
difficulty in implementing new features within their existing systems. The limitations of the old legacy systems are becoming increasingly apparent, especially when reaching their end-of-life date (when a vendor no longer markets, sells or releases that particular
equipment). As such, many exchanges are actively seeking new solutions to modernise their operations and remain competitive in an ever-evolving technological landscape.

Una recente pubblicazione di
Oliver Wyman advises: “A wave of high-profile, drastic cost-cutting measures have been undertaken by the leading technology outfits and banks – and market infrastructure groups will not be exempt from economising. That’s why it’s important that market infrastructure
groups emphasise and deliver on sustainable performance improvements, mindful of their longer-term strategic growth agenda.”

L’amministratore delegato del Nasdaq, Adena Friedman, è d’accordo, assicurando ai clienti che un aggiornamento dell’infrastruttura può sbloccare anni di crescita se fatto con lungimiranza. Eppure anche lei

avvertenze: “Investire nella resilienza è difficile, può essere costoso e ha cicli di rendimento più lunghi….”

Ma è sempre così? È davvero necessario che sia così difficile, costoso e dispendioso in termini di tempo?

Un’alternativa più semplice: soluzioni di livello capitale basate sul cloud

Se la trasformazione viene affrontata da fornitori di tecnologia cloud-agnostici e incentrati sul digitale, allora le soluzioni basate sui diritti, basate sul cloud e di livello capitale fornite tramite SaaS (con un time-to-market enormemente ridotto) dovrebbero diventare la norma. 

Similar to other industries undergoing digital transformation, modern technology solutions are also becoming accessible for regulated exchanges – solutions that can easily handle, for example, more advanced trading strategies and new asset types. In particular,
these cloud-agnostic solutions still allow for deployment in on-premises setups with low-latency requirements, and across various environments (excluding production), resulting in substantial cost savings.

Previously, a CIO would be tempted to pay obscene amounts of money for what was considered a ‘safe’, albeit legacy-based, provider. Now forward-thinking decision-makers realise they need to change their approach, and are reviewing all available options in
order to ensure competitiveness. 

These forward-thinking decision-makers are asking the following question of their technology providers: Is there a multicloud offering? Can the system handle tokenisation and new asset types? What is the timeframe required for the development of a brand
new marketplace? And can maximum speeds of latency be maintained for high-frequency trading?

Risultati autentici

In this year of ‘make or break’ for exchanges, I question the naysayers seemingly set against true innovative change. Those vendors who contend that investing in technology is hard, expensive and long, seem to often veer towards strategies that ultimately
delay and postpone change. Who does this really help?

Mentre gli scambi si avviano verso il nuovo anno, è necessaria una riflessione: la vostra tecnologia sta fungendo da facilitatore piuttosto che da ostacolo? Le tue capacità tecnologiche si allineano perfettamente con i tuoi obiettivi? E sono posizionati per una consegna affidabile?

Successful exchanges will be those ready to adopt innovative technologies. An authentic understanding of the complexities involved with modern, digital-first infrastructures is therefore crucial. Furthermore, leveraging SaaS in this instance can mean advancing
your team’s velocity, since implementing this change will improve engagement, retention and elevate your team’s capabilities for agility, thus ushering in a departure from traditional big bang projects.

Dopotutto, non è in gioco solo la performance di una borsa, ma potrebbe anche esserne la sopravvivenza.
