By: Golden Networking The Speed Traders Workshop 2011 will be extremely helpful for all delegates who are working in finance and investments, from financial institutions, investment banks, hedge funds, pension funds, broker dealers, consultancy groups, prime brokers, solution providers and exchanges, who wish to gain a thorough understanding and practical knowledge of high-frequency trading. Reuters reports that leaders of the world's G20 major economies last November called on the International Organisation of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) to mitigate risks from technological advances in trading technology. The "flash crash" on Wall Street in May 2010 shocked small investors and rang regulatory alarm bells, helping to turn the political heat on high frequency trading (HFT) and the algorithms they use. HFT accounted for 56 percent of U.S. and 36 percent of European equity volume last year, according to TABB Group. The widespread use of algorithmic trading and HFT could be putting off traditional investors from entering some markets due to fears their slower systems put them at a disadvantage, IOSCO said. A U.S. government report into the flash crash of May 2010, when Wall Street went briefly into a tailspin, did not directly blame HFT, but IOSCO said the event showed how algorithms can amplify interconnections between markets. The report said direct electronic access, whereby brokers allow clients to use their systems to trade directly on markets, was an area where HFT may pose significant risks. IOSCO's recommendations, which its members will begin implementing straight away, focus on closer monitoring of HFT rather than trying to curb it. The Speed Traders Workshop 2011, led by Edgar Perez, author of The Speed Traders, will reveal how high-frequency trading players are succeeding in the global markets and driving the development of algorithmic trading at breakneck speeds from the U.S. and Europe to India, Singapore and Brazil.
