Bürgin, Head of Asia Pacific, NYSE Technologies. “As a new product line within
NYSE Technologies, Metabit will continue to work with CameronTec to provide high
performance connectivity to Japan’s exchanges while offering local market
participants access to and support for Cameron’s suite of solutions.”

“We are especially pleased to be working alongside NYSE Technologies to continue
to deliver FIX technology as part of the Metabit product suite and have them
support our products throughout such a critical market as Japan,” says Anders
Henriksson, CEO, CameronTec. “CameronTec is continuously working to improve the
standard in FIX infrastructure and to provide our markets with cutting edge
innovation for which we are renowned. These developments are a further
demonstration that CameronTec continues to lead the industry in FIX innovation.”

At the core of CameronTec technology is a unique understanding of the FIX world
that comes from a concentration of the world’s largest FIX deployments. With a
host of industry-firsts, Catalys and CameronFIX technology provide unprecedented
levels of flexibility and innovation that firms need to sustainably
differentiate in today’s markets.
