The combined team members have financial services experience from 1978 and have successfully built nimble trading infrastructures on all major financial markets from Asia to North America.
Competitive Edge:
The acquisition would position the Company's regulatory grade technology and liquidity solutions as a key player for small to medium-sized brokers often overlooked by large financial institutions, giving it a competitive edge over other industry players.
