Abstract

A securities processor includes a prematching process for validating an attributable security interest message placed by a market participant on a securities trading system This attributable security interest message relates to an individual security chosen from a plurality of securities traded on the securities trading system. A matching queue receives the validated attributable security interest message from the prematching process, and queues it for subsequent matching. A matching process obtains the validated attributable security interest message from the matching queue and compares it with previously-validated attributable security interest messages to determine if a match occurs between the validated attributable security interest message and one of the previously-validated attributable security interest messages.
