MCI Consultants enhances TradeCIS

Johannesburg, 09 Jun 2005

MCI Consultants today announced an enhanced version of its TradeCIS product that incorporates numerous requests proposed by the user community; changes necessitated by regulatory requirements; and increases in optimisation and speed from a performance viewpoint.

"Our policy has always been to incorporate, as appropriate, changes suggested by our client base at the earliest possible opportunity and this version does exactly that," commented Jan Rabbets, Business Partner of MCI Consultants. "In addition, we have added some extra validations specifically required by FICA.

"Finally, although our TradeCIS users were not impacted by the recent volumes experienced in the quarterly `Futures close-out` that saw over 300 000 orders in a single day, we decided to also include some additional optimisation and performance enhancements in order to ensure the product was buffered from any future peaks that might exceed previously experienced volumes," concluded Rabbets. "We believe we can now cope with three times the load experienced with the last futures close-out."

TradeCIS, a trading system, was designed according to the JSE/LSE specification and incorporates the relevant JSE rules and legislation. This was specifically done to ensure users not familiar with, or aware of, the rules and regulations of the JSE, are unable to enter illegal orders.
