Time and Low Latency Solutions for the Financial Industry

financial transaction

Taking BeiDou Trusted Time Scale as the root, combining PTP and White Rabbit (WR) to create a low-latency, verifiable and traceable transaction-level time network (aPNT).

Transparency is a key element in financial markets. For each transaction, it is important to have reliable data on who initiated the transaction, how it was processed and exactly when it was executed. Authorities need to be able to correlate information on each reportable event to prevent trading irregularities and market abuse. This data is also extremely valuable in tracking down failures in highly complex trading systems.

In the era of high-frequency trading and algorithmic decision-making, time is value. Beidou Bontec provides localized high-precision timing solutions, supporting IEEE 1588 v2 (PTP),White Rabbit (WR)Redundant modules with GNSS + ePRTC ensure nanosecond synchronization performance. Unified time source enables accurate time-stamping of transaction records, anti-spoofing and compliance auditing, helping financial institutions to meet MiFID II, FINRA and regulatory requirements around the world, reducing transaction disputes and operational risks, and improving market fairness and transaction efficiency.

PBoC Security Risk Alert for the Financial Sector

According to the relevant state departments, China's civilian GPS equipment, there is a "GPS spoofing" security threats, "GPS spoofing" technology is the use of GPS signal analog transmitter to generate false signals to deceive the GPS receiving equipment, so that it ignores the correct satellite signal and works under false signals. GPS spoofing" technology is a wireless attack method that uses a GPS signal simulation transmitter to generate false signals to deceive GPS receiving devices so that they ignore the correct satellite signals.

Regulatory Compliance Assurance

Full protocol timestamp support: PTP +White Rabbit+ NTP + 1 PPS + 10 MHz to meet MiFID II / FINRA clock synchronization specifications. Provides a traceable link to ensure that transaction time recording meets regulatory requirements ("accurate time recording of each transaction sequence").

High Frequency Trading Accuracy

PTP nanosecond synchronization supports very low network jitter scenarios and meets the timing requirements of HFT transactions (sub-millisecond or even nanosecond), while multi-source GNSS combined with high-stability rubidium clocks ensures long-term punctuality and prevents timing drift due to signal outages or attacks.

Risk Management and Event Reconfiguration

The unified clock-driven log marking and audit chain supports efficient backtracking and dispute analysis, and the precise time series enables the risk control system to accurately quantify time differences and transaction sequences to reduce operational risk.

System Architecture and Servitization Extension

Provide "Timing as a Service" (Sync-aaS) solution, which can be used as time service for exchanges, brokerage firms or data centers, with modular local deployment + network synchronization solution to meet the needs of low-latency and high-availability architecture.

Increased security and trust

Integrated anti-jamming/anti-spoofing mechanism to resist pseudo-code attack and signal interference and guarantee the credibility of time source. Supports White Rabbit high-precision time distribution, realizing cross-platform high-fidelity synchronization within the trading system.

T830 Unified Time Solution for Financial Industry

In a financial production network, time is not "as close as possible", but "must be consistent and traceable". When relying only on NTP, queuing jitter and path asymmetry across three layers and congestion can magnify deviations and tail risks to the millisecond-microsecond scale; PTP transforms source-to-end errors from uncontrollable fluctuations to budgetable, attributable, and manageable ones through hardware timestamps on the NIC/switching chip, boundary/transparent clocks, and (optionally) SyncE. PTP turns "source-network" errors from uncontrollable fluctuations into budgetable, attributable, auditable quantities of work through hardware timestamps on the NIC/switch chip and (optional) SyncE. With the T830 as the core, without interrupting the NTP of the existing network, the critical links are stabilized to the low-microsecond level first, and then tightened to the sub-microsecond/hundred-nanosecond level in the controlled core segments, so that minimal modification is made in exchange for maximum verifiability and compliance certainty.

Financial Clock System Compliance Technology Program and Regulatory Benchmarking Report

This content is intended to serve as a reference for financial institutions, regulators and technology service providers in building time synchronization compliance. With the increasing frequency of global financial transactions, time has become an important infrastructure to ensure market fairness and compliance. Based on the regulatory standards of five global jurisdictions and domestic and international time system construction experience, this document systematically explains the technical architecture, regulatory requirements and compliance path of time synchronization in the financial industry. The core attributes of the financial industry are high risk and profit-seeking, which makes it one of the most regulated areas. Transactions, clearing, reconciliation, risk control, auditing, etc. all rely on accurate time records. Any time deviation can lead to trading errors, audit discrepancies and even regulatory penalties.
