My gurus also concur that Unix is a safer choice for high volume transaction processing systems, but given that the volume of VWAP transactions is not that great, NT might do just fine - it really depends on the extent to which a high volume of transactions has to be processed in real time, and the peak loading characteristics, database characteristics, and other factors.

The other concern often raised about NT vs Unix is security, NT generally thought to have more holes. Given the absolute need for secrecy here, this may be a more convincing reason to have chosen Unix.
