Technical overview

Exchange Administration Technology Architecture

Exchange Administration Technology sets out the operational role, control model and integration requirements for exchange administration technology within institutional market infrastructure.

The page explains how the capability connects to trading, risk, clearing, settlement, reporting and market operations so exchange operators and technology teams can assess where it fits in a regulated venue stack.

Overview

What Is Exchange Administration Technology?

Exchange Administration Technology is a technical and operational capability used by regulated market operators, financial institutions, technology teams and market infrastructure stakeholders.

exchange administration technology should be evaluated through its service boundaries, control model, data flows, integrations, audit records and role in the wider market operating model.

Define the participant roles, permissions, controls and records required for the market model.
Align trading, risk, clearing, settlement, reporting and operational workflows before launch.
Maintain auditability across configuration changes, participant activity and post-trade events.
