The office will focus on distributing TT's X_TRADER electronic trading software and technology solutions, including TTNET, to banks, Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs), hedge funds, proprietary trading firms and other customers in Singapore.

TT now operates four offices in the Asia/Pacific region, with additional operations in Hong Kong, Tokyo and Sydney. The Singapore staff will report to Robbie McDonnell, who serves as VP/Managing Director, Asia/Pacific Sales. McDonnell is relocating to Singapore from Hong Kong, where he recently managed the opening of TT's new office there. The Singapore office now serves as TT's Asia/Pacific headquarters.

"The opening of this office in Singapore supports our strategy to expand TT's presence in Asia. We are seeing strong demand for TT's trading software in the Singapore market, and the presence of a local team will allow us to best serve our growing customer base there," said Tim Geannopulos, EVP Global Sales.
