The new interface, MegaDirect, is up to 10 times faster than the existing Multigateway interface and has a greater capacity for data processing. It plugs directly into Mega Bolsa’s matching engine and uses the Fix 4.2 protocol.

Brokerage houses will now be able to use trading screens from companies authorised by BM&F Bovespa, as well as just Mega Bolsa screens.
