TNS Announces New Deal with FlexTrade
Background
Founded in 1996, FlexTrade is an industry pioneer and one of the global leaders in broker-neutral algorithmic trading platforms and execution systems for equities, foreign exchange and listed derivatives. With offices in North America, Europe and Asia, FlexTrade has a worldwide client base spanning more than 120 buy and sell-side firms, including many of the largest banks, hedge funds, asset managers, commodity trading advisors and institutional brokers.
Business Challenge
In order to strengthen FlexTrade’s position as key provider in algorithmic trading, the organisation needed a service provider that could supply network connections to customers without affecting a client’s business. This would enable FlexTrade to build relationships with new and existing customers and the ability to launch new products and services effectively.
Solution
Transaction Network Services’ (TNS) Secure Trading Extranet now offers FlexTrade secure, resilient and cost effective connectivity services in support of mission critical electronic trading. FlexTrade is able to quickly and easily connect to members of TNS’ community of interest, expanding its global reach to many financial market participants.
