NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- NYSE Technologies, the commercial technology division of NYSE Euronext, today announced the addition of the Appia Business Centre, a management interface that allows front-end users to configure FIX infrastructure without special coding, to its FIX capabilities.

The Appia Business Centre automates the process of managing rules, implementing routing strategies, adjusting symbology, translation, and risk management. Business users can configure the FIX infrastructure to meet their specific requirements and trading styles while expediting connectivity without technical support.

"Our products have evolved throughout the years based on the demanding needs of our clients and as FIX has moved from technology departments to the front lines, we developed powerful tools that allow business users to configure their FIX infrastructure and apply new rules without coding," Jim Timmins, Co-Head of Enterprise Software, NYSE Technologies. "Appia Business Centre saves clients years of development work while reducing cost, complexities in managing vendor relationships, and time to market."

"We intend to use Appia FIX engine's as the main electronic trading entry point into the Mercado Integrado Latino Americano (MILA)¹, with direct market access to Chile, Colombia and Peru," Claudio Larrain, Managing Director, LarrainVial. "As we continue to leverage the growth in the region, we will rely on Appia Business Centre's powerful risk management and FIX monitoring functionality to manage electronic trading activity into the region and from the region into the US markets. Appia Business Center, alongside SuperFeed² and a direct connection to NYSE Technologies Secure Financial Transaction Infrastructure (SFTI),³ is yet another example of the growing synergies between MILA and NYSE Technologies products. "

In addition to the Appia Business Centre, the FIX software suite includes the Appia FIX Engine and TradeScope, a web-based tool that monitors FIX infrastructure and day-to-day trading activity.
