Front End Systemic Capture Rule 123 David Bartges Director NYSE Technology Infrastructure January 13, 2000
NYSE Business Goals • Address regulatory issues • Maximize operational efficiencies • Provide new customer services
Industry Drivers • Move towards straight through processing • Decrease comparison/settlement window • Rapidly changing competitive landscape
Program Components • Modifications to Rule 123 • New systems’ architecture and access network • Expanded use of industry-standard protocols and formats • Various system enhancements phased in over several years
Rule 123 Summary • Order details must be entered into a system which electronically timestamps the time of entry on the Floor prior to representation at the point of sale
Rule 123 Summary (cont) • Firms can comply in one of two ways: • Order details can be transmitted electronically to a system on the Floor which electronically timestamps the time the order was received on the Floor, or • Order details can be phoned to the Floor and then entered into a system which electronically timestamps the time of entry on the Floor.
Rule 123 Summary (cont) • The device used to receive or enter the order details on the Floor can either be an Exchange provided system (e.g., BBSS) or a member’s own proprietary system. • If a proprietary system is used, a copy of the order details with the system produced timestamp must be transmitted to an Exchange database (i.e., FESC) within 60 seconds of the time the order was entered into or received in the system on the Floor.
Rule 123 Summary (cont) • Mandatory order details: • Symbol, quantity, side of market, market/limit/stop/stop limit, limit/stop price, time in force, held/not held, unique order ID, member firm, clearing firm, special conditions, “Floor Available” timestamp • Optional order details: • Special instructions, account type (if known), account number, “Firm Send” timestamp
Rule Change Filing Status • Rule Change published in Federal Register- 8/4/99 • SEC Approval pending • SEC order requires 9 months after rule approval for effective date ~ October 2000
RULE 123 versus OATS • Most Rule 123 data elements also required by OATS • Rule 123 requires fewer data elements than OATS • Rule 123 is Floor oriented; OATS is firm oriented • Rule 123 submission “real time” (order-by-order); OATS is batch, file transfer
