Are we expecting tomorrow's markets to run on yesterday's infrastructure?

24/7 trading, fragmented liquidity, AI and increasing automation place new and growing demands on financial market infrastructure. Yet much of this infrastructure has evolved over decades, with new systems, networks and providers added as trading requirements evolved.

Zayo Europe, Equinix, Ciena, Iress and Keysight Technologies contributed to the report and the panel, examining the pressures across the trading infrastructure ecosystem and what firms may need to rethink.

Inside the report

Always-on markets, shrinking margins for error: why being available is no longer the same as being operationally ready.
Infrastructure by accumulation, not architecture: how estates built one requirement at a time become harder to see, govern and predict.
Beyond speed: why consistent performance under stress matters as much as headline latency.
Hidden risks of interconnected infrastructure: where separately contracted services share the same routes, facilities and failure modes.
Al, a new test of readiness: how Al workloads change data volumes, locations and demand patterns.
From monitoring performance to proving resilience: what boards, clients and regulators increasingly expect to see evidenced.
