M.Comm. / The influence of electronic trading on the corporate environment is researched in this study. Large amounts of money in the form of financial instruments are managed on behalf of clients on a daily basis. With the ever-changing technology, organisations are forced to reconsider their current use of technology to enable them to provide the best service to their clients. Most financial processes have done away with the unnecessary use of paper. Corporate organisations that invest large amounts of money on behalf of clients and do not utilise electronic trading systems, are putting themselves, as well as their clients, at a disadvantage. It must be stressed that although the technical requirements and systems that are necessary for electronic trading are discussed, this study concentrates more on the strategic advantages and management implications electronic trading has on the organisation. This study comes to the conclusion that electronic trading has a significant impact on the business world, and that corporate organisations should seriously consider to convert their processes accordingly, expand it and utilise it to its full potential.
