PROCESSING OF EXERCISED OPTIONS

摘要

A computer system may receive exercise instruction data for an option. The exercise instruction data may indicate exercise of an option on which optionor and optionee interests are based. The computer system may access stored option data. The option data may identify multiple optionor interests based on options of the same type as the exercised option. The computer system may select one of the optionor interests. The selecting may be performed in response to the exercise instruction data and without regard to whether the selected optionor interest is based on the exercised option. The computer system may transmit, to a computer system associated with a holder of the selected optionor interest, assignment data indicating assignment of an interest in an optioned contract created as a result of the option exercise.
