Abstract: An anonymous trading system for financial instruments comprises a network of broking nodes each performing a bid and offer matching function and a market view distribution function. Trader terminals are connected to the network via trading agent nodes. During deal execution a credit check is performed and once the deal is complete the identity of the counterparty becomes known to the other counterparty to the deal. The originating counterparty may send a More quantity message to the other party proposing a further deal at the same price. The other party may decline, partially accept, accept or accept and propose a still further amount. Credit for the further deal is drawn from an external source and the internal credit limits are temporarily increased or disabled to prevent the deal from being rejected.

Abstract: An anonymous trading system comprises a network of broker nodes each of which perform price matching, deal execution and market distribution. Trader terminals on trading floors are connected to a given broker node via a trading agent node. Credit may be stored for a given trading floor at its trading agent node or at a credit agent node which stores credit limits for a group of trading floors. Where the credit limits of a party to a proposed deal are stored at a credit agent node, the deal execution process is routed through that credit agent node to check for available credit. The system allows institutions to adopt any combination of local and global credit assignments with counterparties with which it wishes to trade.

Abstract: Computerized trading system for trading financial instruments having a communication network connecting traders dealing in financial instruments and a plurality of trader terminals connected to the communication network. The communication network comprises a credit store for storing an indication of credit available from each credit granting entity, a price distributor for distributing the price quotation messages to trader terminal for display, a credit filter to filter the price quotation messages to each trader terminal associated with at least one credit granting entity.

Abstract: In an anonymous trading system, credit between counterparties is effectively increased by netting buy and sell trades to reflect the true risk to which each party is exposed. Credit limits are adjusted by calculating the exposure in each currency at the relevant time and then converted into the credit limit currency equivalent. The credit limits are adjusted accordingly. The resulting credit limits may be different for bids and offers by or from a given counterparty.

Abstract: An improved multiple order facility for a computerized trading system in which a first trader submits a plurality of orders for display and acceptance by other traders, including a first subsystem which permits the first trader to simultaneously generate a plurality of orders, and a second subsystem which displays the orders at computer terminals of the other traders to whom the orders were sent. Using the first subsystem, the first trader selects one or more financial instruments associated with a respective one of the orders from a displayed list of related financial instruments, selects a common quantity to be applied to each of the orders, and selects, for each order, a respective price at which the first trader is willing to buy or sell the financial instrument associated with that order. Each of the orders is then sent to a plurality of other trading using the computerized trading system.

Abstract: An emission control system for a fluid composition comprised of volatile constituents used to clean a hollow fiber filter or capillary flow dialyzer including a housing having a chamber for receiving the dialyzer, a control system is used for establishing a desired environment in the chamber, the dialyzer and the fibers, a separator operatively associated with the chamber for separating gas and liquid components of the fluid composition, a stripper connected to the separator for fractionating lower boiling point volatiles from the gas to return the higher boiling point volatiles to the fluid phase and yield a stripped or solvent humidified gas and a delivery system for routing the stripped gas to the chamber dialyzer and fibers as a drying agent.
