Azerbaijan Modernizes Their Capital Markets Infrastructure with Montran

The new CEDAR platform allows NDC to efficiently manage the complete lifecycle of dematerialized securities, including registration, primary and secondary market clearing, settlement, and corporate actions processing. It is built with best practices and complete support for straight-through-processing (STP) using ISO 20022 messages. Additionally, NDC also launched their new Investor Portal platform, which provides access to individual and corporate investors directly to monitor their accounts, transactions and enter operations.

BETP, the new trading system of BSE, enables real-time trading of dematerialized securities and repurchase agreements using orders and negotiations. BETP opens new opportunities for BSE members by providing integration capabilities using FIX protocol and APIs to perform trading activities and obtain market data.
