Why you need to be at Trading Architecture Singapore
Trading Architecture Singapore 2012 held on 7-8 November 2012 is an event dedicated to automated low latency trading systems operating across asset classes. We focus on the trading architecture that
creates best practice high performance. This includes topics dedicated to
- Front office low latency upgrades
- Back and middle office automation
- Enterprise architectural alignment
- Multi asset trading platforms
- Trading risk and surveillance systems
- Buy-side and sell-side perspectives
This event is a sister event to our large popular Trading Architecture Asia event which is held in Hong Kong on 29-31 August. Our Singapore event is designed specifically for trading teams based in SE Asia who were not able to make the flagship event but who plan to attend our large TradeTech Asia 2012 which is colocated with Trading Architecture Singapore. TradeTech Asia attracts the cream of Asia’s buy-side and sell-side trading professionals but is focused on Best Execution issues of concern to the buy-side Head of Trading. So while it is a very popular show, it has a limited focus on technology.
By including the technology frameworks supporting a successful trading team, we give you the full picture of what it takes to be top class trading performer. We anticipate attracting 700 capital market trading professionals from across Asia’s trading value chain. While Trading Architecture Singapore has a technical theme, it is also applicable to other trading professional who want to better understand how technology is driving commercial strategies and regulatory requirements.

What’s new for 2012?
In 2010 we held our first major Trading Architecture event in Hong Kong. That event profiled how low latency architecture could benefit your trading strategies. In 2011 we revisited those themes and presented case studies on how trading companies were bedding down the new trading infrastructure structure. This year, the discussion has moved on to how to address regulatory requirements to improve the operational effectiveness of the low latency systems in the context of issues such as Big Data analytics, real time surveillance and cloud based data systems. We also continue to explore how HFT strategies and technology is continuing to influence the development of capital market structures, cross asset trading strategies and regulatory policy.
New topics include:
- Global regulations and their impact on Asian technology operations

Creating a new program involves actively researching with 100s of end users and vendors to find the cutting edge topics that you want to know more about. We also hope to challenge some of your assumptions by introducing topics that are left field and futuristic. Conferences are not all about doing business – they should be fun and interesting too! If you would like information on being a speaker or have good suggestions for new content, please contact the event producer Rod McLauchlan on Rod.Mclauchlan@wbresearch.com +65 6408 9228.
