Cornhill Asset Management will use ETW's execution tools and utilise the comprehensive, integrated market data service including time and sales, news, charting, company fundamentals and corporate actions.

Richard Earthrowl, head of trading, at Cornhill Asset Management comments: "We wanted a reliable and scalable trading solution that would enable us to expand the number of markets we trade. We were impressed with Fidessa Workstation's rich functionality and market data capabilities and when it came to selecting our execution tools and extending our connectivity to Europe, ETW was our obvious choice."
