    With 2013 upon us, one of the stories to watch this year is the implementation of a section of Dodd-Frank rules that are slated to go into effect. Although the new Regulation is imminent, many financial companies are still struggling with understanding clearly the scope of the new laws as well as effort involved to fully comply. Catering to this need, technology consultant to the financial trading industry, HFT Technologies has announced the launch of HFT Pros. HFT Pros is a new company that will provide compliance and IT consulting to meet Dodd-Frank driven demand. HFT CEO Tony Verga explained the worries that are hitting companies due to Dodd-Frank, “For financial firms, 2013 will be Y2K all over again. Wrapping up IT projects now will be critical to having capacity to implement the new rules later in the year.”

    “For the past two years, we have been building the technology – a new, sub-4 microseconds CME FIX Gateway and CME Price Feed Handler. We expanded our CME co-locating services by adding full Hosting capabilities at the CME Aurora Data Center,” said CEO Tony Verga. “With HFT Pros, we can now send teams of consultants to help our clients implement the faster, more efficient systems in time to meet regulatory deadlines.” With Dodd-Frank compliance deadlines – and the likelihood of additional federal regulations aimed at high-frequency trading – it’s imperative that firms complete current IT projects, streamline maintenance procedures and have documentation in place ahead of time. “For financial firms, 2013 will be Y2K all over again,” said Verga. “Wrapping up IT projects now will be critical to having capacity to implement the new rules later in the year.” In highest demand are financial programmers, network engineers, project managers, co-location implementation specialists and market data experts. All HFT Pros consultants have a minimum of 5 years of experience with trading software and financial infrastructure. Project managers are needed most urgently. Their documentation skills will prove invaluable, as even more regulations are likely to come from SEC, CFTC and many European agencies throughout next year.
