1. An innovative solution to consolidate African and Middle Eastern markets

2. Fragmentation in developed markets The fragmentation of liquidity occurs when a security is traded in multiple trading venues. The ease of access to technology and regulation such as RegNMS (US) and MiFID (Europe) has increased the pace of fragmentation by removing barriers that formerly prevented the creation of new Exchanges. What technology helps fragment, technology helps put- together. Developed markets overcome fragmentation by using liquidity aggregation technology. Fragmentation

3. Fragmentation in emerging markets Fragmentation in emerging markets is the fragmentation of market capitalization. Fragmentation occurs due to the existence of small ‘ponds’ of liquidity in the form of a domestic or regional stock exchange with a few noteworthy listings. These few noteworthy listings have limited access to capital due to the limited audience the domestic exchange could provide. Fragmentation (cont.)

4. What if ? The small ‘ponds’ of liquidity could be opened out to a wider audience without the complication of cross border listings? A large pool of liquidity in terms of market cap could be created to attract regional and global attention? The solution is an easily accessible technological solution and is least intrusive on current regulation and practices? The solution is a model that solves liquidity fragmentation in developed markets and is technology that is already available? The Possibilities

5. The solution is a liquidity aggregation and access tool. We call it a Smart Order Router (SOR). The Solution

6. What is a Smart Order Router? A Smart Order Router is a tool that aggregates liquidity by consolidating market data from multiple execution venues and provides direct market access based on simple and complex routing logic. The SOR

10. SOR Connectivity

11. Five steps to consolidation Step 1 – Participating exchanges create SOR Utility. Step 2 – Member Firms of participating exchanges establish relationships for client sharing, exposure limits and clearing & settlement. Step 3 – Decide on industry standard protocols for common access point connectivity (FIX/ ITCH/FAST). Step 4 – Decide revenue model – fee per route and/or market data fee and settlement guarantee fee. Step 5 – Install technology, establish connectivity and run.

12. Proposed Workflow Exchange names used only for purposes of illustration

13. An Alternate relationship Instead of a broker – broker relationship, an alternate Exchange – Exchange tie up can be done In this scenario, Exchanges would take on the settlement responsibility, on behalf of it’s member firms and guarantee settlement Each Exchange would then become a settlement partner of the other Exchanges it is connected to The advantage is that the Exchange is more of a trusted entity than a broker firm, in a regional sense
