The London Stock Exchange suffered a second embarrassing system glitch in a week on Friday when UK share trading failed to start on time, angering clients keen to trade because of tension in Libya.
The UK exchange, which has been working hard to update
its trading systems in recent years, did not start trading as planned at 0800
GMT and opened instead at 1215 GMT, with the LSE blaming a technical glitch.
The outage came just four days after the LSE-owned
Italian market Borsa Italiana failed to open on Feb. 22, and was down until
mid-afternoon at the start of a week in which firms needed to trade because of
events in Libya.
"At a time of uncertainty in the markets, where
traders are having to keep on their toes with the situation in Libya, the last
thing they need is an unexpected halt to trading," Joshua Raymond, market
analyst at City Index, said about Friday's LSE outage.
Britain's FTSE 100 had lost 2.7 percent in the previous
five sessions on growing concerns that the unrest in Libya could spread to
other oil-producing countries including Saudi Arabia, but European shares
rebounded on Friday.
Friday's outage is a blow for the LSE as it has been
moving its various trading systems to a new technology platform in the past six
months, and 10 days ago moved its main UK share trading service Sets onto the
Millennium system.
LSE spokesman Alastair Fairbrother said it was not clear
whether the new system had caused the problem on Friday.
"We can't say what's causing the problem or if it's
to do with the implementation of, or the migration to, the new system," he
said.
The last serious trading halt was a three-and-a-half-hour
stoppage in November 2009.
"It's the international credibility that one has
this slight worry about. London is supposed to be the leading financial center
of the world," said David Buik, senior partner at BGC Partners.
Equity traders were unable to react to data showing a
surprisingly large drop in fourth-quarter GDP, which prompted a fall in
sterling and a rise in gilts, while there have been sharp moves in recent days
caused by developments in North Africa.
