Inside Market Data and Inside Reference Data are delighted to host the first Tokyo Financial Information Summit, providing a platform where practitioners will discuss and debate the latest solutions and strategies for market and reference data in thought-provoking panel discussions and presentations.

As most financial institutions in Japan have become more cost-conscious whereas speed, reliability and data quality are driving demand for higher sophistication in market data management systems, financial institutions in Japan are faced with a dilemma whereby they are required to do more with less. The next-generation trading system “Arrowhead” by the Tokyo stock Exchange is transforming the country’s trading landscape and has also given rise to the provision of high speed network that provides ultra low latency connectivity to all major Japanese exchanges from major cities and financial hubs in the world.

Against the backdrop of this dynamic state-of-play, Tokyo Financial Information Summit is timed at such interesting times to address the challenges and opportunities and highlight practical solutions to issues faced by data end-users, exchanges and vendors in Japan.

To ensure you stay ahead of the business, regulatory, and technology challenges facing the market and reference data community make sure you mark this date in your diary now!
