THE B2N BUSINESS CASE FOR COST SAVINGS

Software Solution

‐

Pure Software Solution ‐ NO TAX OFFICE BURDEN – no charge per every single data packet (no view

charges) transported over the wire or additional charge for deriving, viewing, managing etc.

Flat License

‐

Simple Licensing policy – Per Company – e.g. “eat as much as you can” the price will stay the same

no matter how many copies you install inside the company. Global, Enterprise or Location – you choose. Freedom to change

‐

The customers can arbitrate between data provider seamlessly and have the chance to change

providers on the fly without service interruption and always choose the more adequate priced one with no

service interruption and changes.

‐

Maintain Vendor/Supplier Independence. Don’t allow Vendor “lock‐in”.

Vendor “lock‐in” with add‐on applications such as Spread sheets used for “Product Pricing” and” Data

Derivatives” restrict your ability to deal with and sort from different sources ‐ aggregator, exchanges ,

vendors and independents .

B2N delivers total freedom of format for all data sources, Vendors, Exchanges et al.

‐

You choose your source of data with no technical restriction.

Flexibility

‐

Easy customization to fit a wide range of customer needs with configuration changes only.

Instant deployment

‐ We provide off‐the‐shelf, platform‐independent installation package, which takes just minutes to get

you up and running.

Modules and Applications

‐

Large number of ready‐to‐use modules and applications:

numerous feed handlers covering large amount of consolidated, direct and Forex feeds;

adapters to 3rd party platforms and MarketHub applications.

Multi-platform

- Support for Windows, Solaris and Linux in both 32 & 64-bit configurations. The data can be accessed

through our C++, Java, C# & COM APIs, Excel adapters, out-of-the-box applications or our adapters to 3rd

party

applications.

B2N/Business Case & Cost savings business case

B2N - MarketHub

Fundamentals

-------------------

MarketHub allows users to focus completely on the business development process, utilizing easy

and clear access and overview to the financial market data. Key advantages and major distinguishing

features include its great flexibility and unparalleled rapid deployment.

MarketHub transports tremendous amounts of market data over your network, including price and

trade information for financial instruments.

MarketHub provides data access from within Excel spreadsheets, off-the-shelf applications and easy

to use SDK libraries for C++, Java, C# and COM.

MarketHub is a monitoring and data-broadcasting technology, allowing traders, brokers and

financial analysts to track and publish changes of financial data or use data for automated trading. It

provides a rich set of tools to respond to the ever changing requirements of financial markets.

MarketHub allows heterogeneous formatted feeds to be integrated and then demultiplexed again

to different client formats using existing 3rd party infrastructure, preserving customer’s current

investments.

-------------------

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

-----------------------

No vendor “lock-in”:

multi-platform – Windows, Linux, Solaris

multiple transport adapters – B2N’s Zero, B2N's TCP, 29West’s LBM, IBM’s LLM and TIBCO

Large number of ready-to-use modules and applications:

numerous feed handlers covering large amount of consolidated, direct and Forex feeds;

adapters to 3rd party platforms

set of MarketHub applications

Flexibility/Extensibility:

modularized, pluggable architecture

low learning curve APIs for C++, Java, C#, COM etc.

----------------------

B2N/Business Case & Cost savings business case

-------------------------

Technology improvements:

“Exception Trading Performance” – optimize trading performance by using the best and dynamically

changing combination of data sources for derived prices that are redistributed to clients.

Generate “Best of Breed Data Feed” – Reliable, Consolidated, Aggregated, Resilient, Easy

manageable on-the-fly according to client’s parameters. (Multiple sources can be used by vendor or

by venue)

Controlling channel – an internal generated feed can switch on/off different rules sets in real-time

Custom rules and algorithms - can be easily added from the customer itself.

--------------------------

--------------------------

Management improvements:

Having “One” easy-to-use interface/solution to multiple data sources instead of many different

technology flavours from different providers.

“Lifting the burden” from the internal resources(Development against constantly changing, different

APIs and adaptors is not part of the customer core business).

“Rapid integration” of already developed and proven existing technology.

“Vendor independence” - by creation own instrument names the customer can easily switch

between data providers.

Reduced “Total Cost of Ownership”

Reductions of “View charges” and “Exchange Fees”
