CME集团
任何全球，交流运行巨头的技术管理都是少数。这一挑战对CME集团的特殊要求，衍生品市场的特定需求使其稳定的新产品流和不断增长的交易和数据量。“Speed, capacity and reliability are what we live and breathe,” says Kevin Kometer, 47, the Chicago-based company’s CIO since 2008. Double digits are the norm: Average daily volume through November 2011, at 13.8 million contracts, was 12 percent ahead of the 2010 period, and November’s $61.9 billion in over-the-counter clearing volume, one of CME’s top growth priorities, beat the October record by 36 percent. For Kometer, who has been with CME since 1994 except for two years with Board of Trade Clearing Corp., the complexity goes beyond keeping systems up and running. Communication and collaboration with network and technology suppliers and customers are essential to anticipating technology trends and market requirements. What’s more, R&D and innovation “are part of our culture,” says Kometer, who serves on the intellectual-property leadership team promoting that cause. With a new data center, CME recently launched a colocation facility to reduce transaction latency. And through a partnership with Brazil’s BM&FBovespa, CME is opening a new systems-development frontier in equity market technology.
