New
York City, NY, USA (March 8, 2013) -- "What the Foresight
Report Tell us About the Future of Computer Trading in Financial
Markets" is the topic of closing keynote speaker professor Dave
Cliff, Department of Computer Science, University of Bristol and
Foresight Project Member of the Lead Expert Group on Algorithmic
Trading, at the most influential high-frequency trading conference in
the world, Golden Networking's High Frequency Trading Leaders Forum
2013 London, "Strategic and Tactical Insights for Investors,
Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges", March 21
(http://www.High-Frequency-Trading-Conference.com).
Advances
in technology continue to transform how our financial markets
operate. The volume of financial products traded through computer
automated trading taking place at high speed and with little human
involvement has increased dramatically in the past few years. For
example, today, over one third of United Kingdom equity trading
volume is generated through high frequency automated computer trading
while in the US this figure is closer to three-quarters.
The
new two-year Foresight study The Future of Computer Trading in
Financial Markets - An International Perspective, sheds new light on
technological advances which have transformed market structures in
recent years. The independent and international study has involved
150 leading experts from more 20 countries to provide the best
possible analysis on computer trading to date. The aim of this
project is to make a significant contribution to the challenges
computer-based trading brings in the coming years and capitalize on
the opportunities it has to offer.
It
assembles and analyses evidence on the effect of HFT on financial
markets looking out to 2022. A High Level Stakeholder Group,
comprised of senior individuals from relevant institutions, provided
strategic oversight for the project and advised on the key issues to
be addressed.
Sponsored
by Her Majesty's Treasury, the project was led by the Government
Office for Science under the direction of the Government's Chief
Scientific Adviser, Professor Sir John Beddington. It has involved
leading experts, among them, Professor Cliff, member of the computer
science team at the University of Bristol and Director of the UK
Large Scale Complex IT Systems Initiative. Professor Cliff is the
inventor of the seminal "ZIP" trading algorithm, one of the
first of the current generation of autonomous adaptive algorithmic
trading systems, which was demonstrated to outperform human traders
in research published in 2001 by IBM.
