Abstract

A high speed apparatus and method for processing a plurality of financial market data messages are disclosed. With respect to an exemplary embodiment, a reconfigurable logic device is employed to (1) receive the financial market data messages, and (2) process each received financial market data message to update a stored record for the financial instrument associated with that message.
