Gatelab, part of Euronext Technology Solutions, is pleased to announce, jointly with Rabobank, the successful implementation of a pioneering algorithmic trading test framework.

In accordance with the guidance under RTS6 for investment firms engaged in algorithmic trading, the solution complements the bank’s existing system and risk controls with an independent, production-like ecosystem to control the deployment of algorithms across several Bond trading venues.

Users are able to orchestrate different workflow scenarios and trading conditions to invoke various dynamic algorithmic decision paths and their associated controls in order to assess the potential impact the algorithms may have on the overall fair and orderly functioning of the market. The automated reports produced for each test run facilitate the bank’s regular self-assessment process.

Deployed either on-prem or SaaS managed by Euronext Technology Services, the solution leverages Gatelab’s multi-asset trading technology stack to provide an independent means to run test scenarios, helping firms hone their algo development processes and risk controls.

For the eighth consecutive year, Euronext will take part in 'Ring the Bell for Gender Equality' — a collaboration of stock exchanges around the world ringing opening or closing bell ceremonies to celebrate International Women’s Day and promote the Women's Empowerment Principles. The initiative is a partnership between the UN Global Compact, IFC, Sustainable Stock Exchanges (SSE) initiative, UN Women, the World Federation of Exchanges and Women in ETFs to raise awareness about the business case for women’s economic empowerment and the opportunities for the private sector to advance gender equality and sustainable development.

International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. This year, the United Nations theme for International Women’s Day 2022: “Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”, recognizing the contribution of women and girls around the world, who are leading the charge on climate change adaptation, mitigation, and response, to build a more sustainable future for all.

At Euronext we believe that collectively, we can drive decisive action to improve gender-balanced leadership in institutions and we are fully committed to retain, develop, and grow the representation of women in leadership, by inspiring and promoting tangible practices within the company and towards our community, while supporting our ecosystem.
