The NASDAQ OMX Certified Partners Program
The NASDAQ OMX Certified Partners Program was created to inform market participants of the NASDAQ OMX service bureaus that provide the highest levels of functionality, access and timely implementation of enhancements for NASDAQ OMX markets. This program was designed to help customers make informed choices about which service bureau is the right solution for their business. The Certified Partners Program is an evaluation program for which NASDAQ OMX service bureaus must apply.

Maintaining Certified Partner Status
In order for the Certified Partners Program to benefit trading firms on a long-term basis, service bureaus will need to maintain their certification levels when NASDAQ OMX implements significant enhancements. NASDAQ OMX reviews our Partners' software frequently and as required by major initiatives.
