Patent number: 11301911Abstract: An on-line venue in which buyers can anonymously communicate precisely what product or service they want to purchase by posting an interactive request that a number of sellers/service providers can then directly respond to according to one embodiment of the invention. Such embodiments may promote the buyers interests in directly matching their needs with qualified vendors. In contrast to what others provide, where the buyer has to search within each seller/service providers and then send their request. Embodiments of the present invention broadcast a buyer's needs to relevant/selected sellers/service providers. Such embodiments may take the burden from a buyer in finding the right products and services by self-qualifying the lead to proactive prospective sellers/service providers.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2017Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: YELLCAST, INC.Inventor: Ganesan Venkatakrishnan

Patent number: 11295263Abstract: A system and method may determine the carbon emissions risk to an institution through its lending and investment activities to a plurality of counterparties by, for example, determining carbon emissions data for a number of counterparties and, for each counterparty, determining the carbon emissions risk to the institution. A system and method may determine the proportion of total capital of a counterparty that is being financed by a bank, and multiply this by a carbon emissions measure for the counterparty. Embodiments may be applied to determine optimal investment strategies for managing an institution's exposures to carbon risk over time.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: Morgan Stanley Services Group Inc.Inventors: Fengyi Xie, Margaret Trench, Mahmoud Raya

Patent number: 11295382Abstract: A system and method for mitigating the effects of transit time latency in the execution of global trade orders at remote exchange servers utilizes a generated complex order. End users with certain trading protocols directed to their asset classes provide the co-located server with their trading parameters, and further personalize their trade orders by establishing rules for executing the orders at each co-located server. This is known as their complex order. A deployed strategy engine generates a virtual machine at each co-located server, which thus allows the co-located server to execute complex orders received from the end user. The end user may modify or delete the complex order at each co-located server at any time. Transit time latency issues are drastically reduced under this system and method.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2018Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Inventor: Mark Gimple

Patent number: 11295385Abstract: A quantity modifier and a price modifier are provided for a spread trading strategy having a desired spread price and a desired spread quantity. According to an example embodiment, a quantity modifier divides the desired spread quantity into a plurality of disclosed spread quantities. Once the disclosed quantities are determined, a plurality of disclosed spread orders having the disclosed spread quantities are sequentially submitted to the market until the full desired spread order quantity is executed or until a predefined condition is detected. A price modifier determines a price level for each disclosed spread quantity, such that each disclosed spread order may be submitted at a different price level.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2020Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Patricia A. Messina, Bharat MIttal

Patent number: 11293771Abstract: A display device includes an emission level calculator and a display. On the basis of a first route for a vehicle from an origin to a destination and electricity information of electricity stored in an in-vehicle battery in which electricity to be used for travel of the vehicle is stored, the emission level calculator calculates a first emission level of carbon dioxide to be caused by travel of the vehicle on the first route. Furthermore, on the basis of a second route for public transportation from the origin to the destination, the emission level calculator calculates a second emission level of carbon dioxide to be caused by travel of the public transportation on the second route. The display displays information based on the first emission level and the second emission level.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2019Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: Panasonic Intellectual Property Management Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroshi Kato, Takuma Iida, Akihiro Sawa
