Abstract: Fairnetting and distribution of electronic trades is described, where, a computing device includes a reception module, a trade organization module, and a trade netting module. The trade organization module organizes one or more trades, received by the reception module, by currency pairs. The trade netting module generates, at a first point in time, a netting plan designed to offset a trade against at least one other trade, and estimates, for the netting plan, a first value that is proportional to an expected savings based on real-time market data and associated with executing the trades according to the netting plan versus executing the trades without the netting plan, where the first value is not exceeded by a cost of trading proportional to a change in market value of the trades between the first point in time and a time that a first trade included in the trades is executed.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for facilitating fairnetting and the distribution of currency trades. In one example, the method may include: (i) estimating non-provided trade information for each trade type of aggregated sets of trades of a plurality of trades using a market mid-rate; (ii) determining a netted amount and a market amount to transact based on received trade information and the estimated non-provided trade information; (iii) executing one or more trades for the market amount at a market rate; and (iv) distributing the market amount and the netted amount proportionally amongst the plurality of trades.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for generating and operating a swaps execution facility (SEF) compliant swaps trading platform are provided. In one example, a method for generating a SEF compliant swaps trading platform includes: (i) generating a swaps trading platform, wherein the generated swaps trading platform is configured to operate in accordance with a plurality of predefined rules associated with swaps execution facility (SEF) requirements; (ii) establishing one or more communication channels with respective one or more clearinghouses for transmission of clearinghouse information concerning one or more trade requests; and (iii) establishing one or more communication channels with respective one or more swaps data repository (SDR) providers for transmission of SDR information concerning the one or more trade requests.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for generating continuous benchmark values are provided. In one example, a method for generating continuous benchmark values includes: (i) obtaining a first plurality of rates associated with a currency pair from a plurality of providers during a first period of time; (ii) generating a first benchmark value associated with the currency pair for a first point in time based on the first plurality of rates; (iii) obtaining a second plurality of rates associated with the currency pair from the plurality of providers during a second period of time; and (iv) generating a second benchmark value associated with the currency pair for a second point in time based on the second plurality of rates.
