CAPIX Internet eXchange - Product Summary

Overview

CAPIX Internet Exchange (CiX) is a modular software package for Internet-based securities trading. Clients use CiX for distributing securities and financial services via the Internet and managing Client or Counter party accounts.

CiX is a modular, integrated system consisting of nine financial instruments based modules. The CiX may be configured for operations in:

• Securities Broking
• Over-the-counter (OTC) Trading
• Exchange Traded Securities

Modules

One of the key features of the CiX is that modules are available for a wide range of financial instruments. By selecting the appropriate modules, CiX can be configured for a wide range of operations.

CiX includes modules for:

• Equities Broking
• Futures Broking
• Fixed Interest Trading
• Money Markets
• Energy Trading
• Banking
• Transaction Execution
• Transaction Clearing
• Market Monitoring

All CiX modules are highly user configurable and "table driven". This means that as new Securities are traded, client staff will be able to store details of these Securities in the database. These Securities will then be available for trading on the Internet site.

Modules may be purchased separately. Additional modules are developed according to client requirements. New modules for additional financial instruments are added according to client requests.

Technology

CAPIX software is exclusively based on Microsoft technology. This is due to the fact that Microsoft technology is well-established in the financial markets. This means that CiX modules can be deployed relatively quickly and inexpensively. 

The CAPIX Internet trading modules require Microsoft Windows NT Server, Internet Information Server (IIS), and SQL Server to operate. It is the responsibility of clients to supply and support the computer hardware and Microsoft operating software listed above.
