The new systems, the Tdex+ new options trading platform and the cash equity matching engine, arrowhead, will provide higher capacity, throughput and a faster response time. The TSE will also launch arrownet, a new integrated ring network with two access points connected to the data centre, which will enable faster and high volume data communication.
