Everything Gato publishes lands here: press releases, product and module launches, technical guides, and white papers, newest first. There is no separate archive to check and no editorial promotion of older items above newer ones.
The mix reflects how the platform develops. Product updates cover module releases across trading and execution, risk and compliance, and operations and data. Technical guides go deeper on the underlying problem — FIX connectivity architecture, pre-trade risk under SEC Rule 15c3-5, CAT and CAIS reporting, intraday margin under FINRA Rule 4210, and post-trade operations under a T+1 settlement cycle. White papers collect that material into longer, citable references for firms building a business case internally. Every item carries its exact publication date, can be shared straight to LinkedIn or X, and is published to the RSS feed for teams that would rather subscribe than check.
The regulatory guides exist because the deadlines behind them keep moving. CAT reporting obligations expand through amended technical specifications and FINRA guidance rather than headline rule changes, CAIS has pulled account and legal-entity data into the same reporting surface as order events, and FINRA's Rule 4210 interpretations have moved margin from an overnight batch calculation toward something firms are expected to evaluate intraday. Each of those shifts lands on the same infrastructure question: whether the order, account, and transaction records a firm reports from are the records its systems actually traded on, or reconciled copies assembled after the fact. The guides in this feed work through that question one obligation at a time, with the operational detail — session management, control placement, event lineage, exception handling — that a compliance summary usually leaves out.
Product coverage follows the same lifecycle. Trading and execution posts deal with order and execution management, multi-venue connectivity, and smart order routing. Risk and compliance posts deal with pre-trade credit, capital, erroneous-order and restricted-list controls, and the reporting that follows them. Operations and data posts deal with digital onboarding, corporate actions, cash movement, fees and P&L, reconciliation, and client reporting. If a topic matters to your firm more than the rest, the topic hubs above collect every related guide, product page, and reference in one place, so you can read the full thread on a single subject instead of working backwards through a chronological feed.
Company news and press releases, product and module updates, technical guides, and white papers — all in one date-ordered feed with the most recent item first, so you can see the current state of the platform without hunting across sections.
