Abstract

In one aspect, the invention comprises a system for enabling a crossing system operator to calculate a rebate payment to a second participant for executing the block order of a first participant based on at least one of: (a) a difference between a benchmark price and an execution price of the block order; (b) total volume of block execution; and (c) an amount that decays exponentially with the time between the first participant's order and the order's execution by a liquidity provider.

Claims (8)

2. A system for enabling a crossing system operator to calculate a rebate payment to a first participant upon execution by a second participant of an order placed by said first participant, based on at least one of:

(a) a difference between a benchmark price and an execution price of said block order;

(b) total volume of said block execution; and
