FNN Connectivity Make First Connection with TNS
Background
FNN Connectivity is an Oslo based financial network, owned by Verdipapirsentralen ASA, the Norwegian CSD and The Norwegian Securities Dealers Association, as well as a number of other members. The FNN Network offers its users access to a variety of Nordic based services.
Business Challenge
FNN Connectivity was in search of a global company that could provide added value to its domestic network of members. It needed a way to deliver fast, secure and reliable fully managed electronic trading which would expand its global reach to organizations outside its borders.
Solution
FNN Connectivity members can now access the Transaction Network Services (TNS) Secure Trading Extranet to provide fully-managed, low latency international trading and market data connectivity.
For FNN Connectivity members, linking to TNS’ extensive network has enabled them to quickly establish connectivity to new and existing customers, making it easier for organizations to do business on a global basis. TNS’ extensive client community incorporates over 1,600 financial community end-points, representing buy-and-sell-side institutions, market data and software vendors, exchanges and alternative venues.
TNS has over 115 points of presence and provides services to customers in over 40 countries across North America, Europe and the Asia Pacific region, with its reach extending to many more.
