Abstract
An electronic marketplace uses a fund composition to guide trading opportunities. Mutual funds typically have a target composition of financial instruments. When prices change for constituents of such a mutual fund, the fund typically needs to rebalance in order to maintain a desired composition. A marketplace that understands the target composition and the movement in prices targets trading opportunities to a fund in a more tailored manner than a traditional marketplace.
