Currently, many systems improve transparency and efficiency in the transmission and utilization of financial information. For example, Electronic Data Gathering And Retrieval (EDGAR), which is used by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) in USA is an electronic filing system for listed companies to submit financial documents. After validation, those documents are disseminated electronically to investors. Securities Markets Automated Research Training and Surveillance (SMARTS), developed in Australia, is a market monitoring system, which detects market behavior, trading patterns, and aberrant trading activities. Also, many financial information retrieval and analysis systems support searching, retrieval, and analysis of financial information, one such example is BOOM. Boom collects, organizes, analyzes and delivers financial information to their subscribers. However, these systems are designed to support vertical perspective of market information transmission, which may be duplicated and error prone, and can be collaborated to provide a more complete view of information for market monitoring and investment decision. / This dissertation is aimed to integrate the financial information in a horizontal perspective---an Integrated Trading Environment is proposed which has five systems to provide the needed functionality. In which, two surveys were conducted on the adoption of on-line trading by both investors and brokers in order to develop strategies for launching the online trading system. To cooperate with the strategies, a knowledge-based financial information infrastructure was proposed in the new trading environment. With the support of proposed Financial Information to Knowledge Transforming Model (FIKTM), a XML-based data integration architecture was constructed to improve the market transparency and efficiency. / Lau Sau Mui. / "August 2002." / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 63-10, Section: B, page: 4873. / Supervisor: Jerome Yen. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2002. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 210-219). / Electronic reproduction.
