The submission of orders for block trade solutions Midpoint Order Book (Midpoint) or Book of Block Trade (BBT) via the ePUMA trading station has undergone improvements. The goal is to enhance the user experience and streamline the routine. The update has brought greater ease for investors as the number of fields that need to be filled out when submitting an order will be reduced. Furthermore, the tool automatically locks fields that should not be filled out, thus minimizing the chance of errors. Here's how it works: #Automatic Filling: When the instrument symbol ending in "M" (Midpoing) is entered in the ticker field, the field "Type of market" will be automatically filled as Midpoint, thereby eliminating the need for the user to fill out two fields. # Error Prevention: When the user enters the instrument symbol ending in "M" (Midpoint) or "Q" (BBT), fields that do not need to be filled out will be locked, preventing potential input errors.

Following the implementation of the Post-Trade Solution for Fixed Income Private Securities (Flow II), in some cases, the number of allocations exceeded the limit of the current message (bvmf.234), making it impossible to send the status of the trade. In this respect, we will implement an improvement to the flow, creating a new message (b3.296), which will be paginated and will allow the institution to receive the status of all allocations made.

B3 will implement an optional field in securities lending to provide custodians with visibility of the give-up participant ID for executed trades. The information will provide greater transparency and speed up the validation of orders entered by managers. It will be available both via message and on the electronic trading platform, streamlining and improving the validation of offers. For technical details, see the catalog on the project page.
