Abstract

A system and method for converting indications of interest to trade a private security into a firm order or intent to trade the security in a trading marketplace. The indications of interest can be converted into the firm order upon receipt of authorization information. The indication of interest is non-binding upon the parties until the trade is completed, and whereupon an economic fee is due. If the firm order is created and placed in the trading marketplace, then once a counterparty to the trade has been identified, the parties are obligated to close the trade. If the trade is not completed, then one of the parties pays the economic fee that is typically associated with the trade.
