Capital Markets Technologies (OTC:BB:CMKT) is a financial technology solutions company providing innovative results to global financial institutions and major corporations. Our operations in Chicago, Toronto and London were initially founded to capitalize on the estimated US $30 billion in financial technology market opportunities which exist within Europe between 2007 and 2010. We have an aggressive acquisitions strategy focusing on companies which are well positioned to take advantage of the paradigm shift occurring in the financial technology markets under the European Union regulatory directives: MiFID and SEPA.
Europe's entire financial technology landscape is set to change by 2010 as a result of MiFID and SEPA which make it mandatory for every one of Europe's 8,000 Financial Institutions (FIs) to change their IT systems and trade processes. The knock-on effects of these directives will impact tens of thousands of non-bank FIs and euro-zone corporate treasuries. Through a number of acquired subsidiaries, CMT will provide its global tier 1 and 2 financial services customers with financial technology solutions helping them to comply with, or capitalize on the world's most significant financial services legislation ever seen
