Method and system for managing communication of information

A machine for managing communication of securities trade data to a plurality of destinations, comprising:

• a computer having a microprocessor coupled to memory, wherein the microprocessor is programmed for:
• receiving securities trade data in both file form and a plurality of different financial markets trade message protocol formats;
• converting the securities trade data that is received in the plurality of different financial markets trade message protocol formats to an intermediary file format;
• translating the securities trade data that is received in file form to the intermediary file format;
• aggregating the intermediary file format securities trade data according to source;
• sorting the intermediary file format securities trade data according to securities trade type;
• translating the aggregated and sorted intermediary file format securities trade data to preferred file formats of the plurality of destinations;
• and
• sending the securities trade data in the preferred file formats to the plurality of destinations.
