External Gateway Manager
External Gateway Manager (EGM) is an integrated solution that allows third party gateways to be controlled by the TradeGuard RX risk engine and take advantage of the pre-and post-trade risk parameters of RX. RX shows clients the current state of accounts, communicates breaches, and facilitates halts and activations of trading. EGM permits clients to benefit from RX’s controls while retaining their own gateways.
Key Benefits
- Vendor neutral, allowing you to utilize your own preferred gateway platform, while taking advantage of the protections of risk controls
- Calculates and provides current state of accounts through drop copy facilities or drops from the gateway
- Notifies breaches in client accounts via Risk Management Protocol messages (RMP)
- Easily signals the gateway to halt or activate trading from the GUI
- Messaging protocol can be used with any programming language
Features & Functionality
- EGM uses RMP with breach details in the message to inform the gateway to inhibit trading when a limit has been breached
- The EGM periodically polls the gateway for status to ensure it is responding to commands correctly
- RX can collect trade and execution reports either from trading venues or directly from the gateway
