Previously, NYSE Euronext did not allow any 3rd party vendor to provide services within the colo facility next to the exchange matching engines during their Phase I build out. However Fixnetix has now contracted to collocate infrastructure on behalf of its customers including investment banks, hedge funds and proprietary trading groups.
This is significant for traders wishing to access multiple markets from within the Basildon colo via the Fixnetix NYSE Euronext Basildon Centre footprint. A Fixnetix colo customer in Basildon will now be able to trade and access 56 + markets worldwide in addition to the NYSE Euronext and NYSE Liffe exchanges.
"As one of the fastest growing technology companies in the UK, we pride ourselves on providing technical innovation and meeting customer demands through the provision of our financial managed services." says Hugh Hughes, Chief Executive of Fixnetix.
