SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Investment Technology, Inc., File No. 500-1; Order of Suspension 
of Trading

April 22, 2002.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is 
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of 
Investment Technology Inc. (``Investment Technology'') because of 
questions regarding the accuracy of assertions by Investment 
Technology, and by others, in documents sent to and statements made to 
market makers of the stock of Investment Technology, other brokers and 
dealers, and to investors concerning, among other things: (1) the 
company's purported acquisitions of, and mergers with, various 
companies and businesses; (2) the status of the company's current 
financial condition and business operations; (3) the identity and 
background of the company's control persons; and (4) the company's 
profit growth and stock price appreciation.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the 
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the 
securities of the above listed company.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the above listed 
company is suspended for the period beginning at 9:30 a.m. EST, April 
22, 2002 and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EST, on May 3, 2002.

    By the Commission.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
