    About gPrecision

    How firms use gPrecision

    gPrecision checks orders before they reach a venue. It reads live prices and current positions. It applies credit and capital limits, catches bad or duplicate orders, and enforces position, concentration, and restricted-list rules.

    SEC Rule 15c3-5 makes these checks part of the order path. A firm with market access must block orders that break its credit or capital limits. The firm must also control those limits itself, not the vendor and not the client.

    So limits need live prices and current positions on every order. Each check needs a saved record of what it saw. gPrecision runs inside the routing path, so no check reads an end-of-day file.

    • Credit and capital thresholds evaluated on every order before routing.
    • Erroneous-order, duplicate, and fat-finger detection against live prices.
    • Position, concentration, and restricted-list controls by desk and account.
    • Hierarchical limits: firm, desk, account, trader, and strategy.
    • Retained record of each evaluation for supervisory and audit review.

    SEC Rule 15c3-5 changed pre-trade risk. Watching orders after the fact is no longer enough. A firm with market access must stop orders that break its credit or capital limits. The firm must control those limits itself, not a vendor and not a client.

    So each order needs a live check. That check reads current prices and current positions. It also leaves a record of what it saw at the time.

    gPrecision runs inside the routing path. No check reads an end-of-day file. When you change a limit during the day, the next order uses the new value.

    Does gPrecision satisfy SEC Rule 15c3-5 requirements?

    It provides the pre-trade layer the rule asks for. Credit and capital limits, bad-order checks, duplicate checks, and restricted lists all run before execution. The firm sets and owns the limits.

    Every check is saved. The written compliance program stays yours, but the technology part is covered.

    What does 'market-aware' mean in practice?

    Limits are checked against live prices and current positions, not a static file. So a size or exposure check reflects what the order would really do right now.

    That matters most in fast markets, when static limits go wrong.

    How much latency do the checks add?

    Checks run inside the routing path, not as an outside call. Overhead is microseconds to a few milliseconds, depending on the setup. A separate risk service usually costs more time than the checks themselves.

    Can limits differ by desk, account, or strategy?

    Yes. Limits sit at firm, desk, account, trader, and strategy level. The tightest one wins. Changes take effect on the next order, not the next day.

    Can gPrecision protect flow routed through a third-party OMS?

    Yes, as long as that flow passes through gPrecision on the order path. Watching trades after they happen does not meet a pre-trade rule.

    So the integration point matters, and we set it during onboarding.

    What happens when a limit is breached?

    The order is rejected before it reaches the venue. The trader sees the reason right away. The event is saved with the limit, the value checked, and the price data used.

    Supervisors can review breaches by desk or by trader.
