FDC3 has become the industry standard for enabling applications on the financial desktop to work together — allowing traders, analysts and operations teams to move seamlessly between tools without re-keying data or stitching together bespoke integrations. The standard defines common APIs, intents and data formats so applications can interoperate in a plug-and-play fashion across any platform.
But as FDC3 adoption grows, the next challenge isn’t just interoperability: it’s trust.
In this session, Kris West and co will take you inside the FDC3 3.0 evolution, exploring the architectural changes that make the standard ready for modern enterprise environments.
Expect a fast-paced tour of the technologies shaping the next generation of financial desktop platforms, including:
- Richer metadata models - Application and user identity and trust frameworks - Zero-trust architectures for desktop interoperability - FDC3 Sail - New branding and acronym for FDC3!
