The functional structure of the stock exchange is based on Quote Driven systems (also called Dealer Markets), in line with what happens in financial markets such as the U.S. Nasdaq and SEAQ (Stock Exchange Automated Quotations System) of the London Stock Exchange. The less risky securities or funds of considerable value will be quoted in Order Driven structures and ongoing calls.

Quote Driven structure enables greater liquidity, because it is always available, and continues during the negotiation period.
It works as a balance between supply and demand, quickly and efficiently, with positive impact on market liquidity.
