The settlement solution was deployed through exchange\u2019s proprietary market system \u2013 FMDQ\u2019s Q-ex \u2013 a customised fully-integrated multi-asset trading system with post-trade services capabilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cFMDQ\u2019s Q-ex has been integrated with the CBN\u2019s Scripless Securities Settlement System (S4) to provide STP capabilities for efficient settlement in the fixed income market, improving the efficiency of the trading, reporting and settlement processes, whilst further developing, in no small measure, the Nigerian financial markets,\u201d FMDQ OTC the exchange explained.<\/p>\n

The exchange said with integrity being one of the key ingredients for a successful market, as adjudged by global counterparts, the achievement of STP in the fixed income market via the integration of Q-ex and the CBN\u2019s S4 could not have come a moment too soon.<\/p>\n

Commenting on development, the Managing Director\/Chief Executive Officer of FMDQ OTC, Bola Onadele.Koko, said: \u201cThe development of FMDQ\u2019s Q-ex and its subsequent linkage to the CBN\u2019s S4 is one of the key medium- to long-term initiatives of FMDQ, aimed at making the Nigerian financial market operationally excellent \u2013 delivering on the \u201cO\u201d in FMDQ\u2019s GOLD Agenda.<\/p>\n

With the continued collective efforts of the CBN, the Securities & Exchange Commission and indeed, other key regulators and stakeholders, we at FMDQ, are confident that the potential of our domestic markets, acting as a catalyst to propel economic growth, shall be realised.<\/p>\n

To build and sustain a well-functioning market, it is hoped that all hands remain on deck even as FMDQ continues to re-affirm its commitment to promote a world-class financial market operating in alignment with international best practices.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
