FastMatch, a matching system of spot foreign exchange trading, has joined TMX Atrium to take advantage of the firm's extensive North American, European and Russian coverage.

Connectivity is provided from the TMX Atrium co-located facility at Equinix London 4 (LD4), as well as Equinix Secaucus (NY4), and allows FastMatch to benefit from instant access to the firm's growing FX community.

TMX Atrium's venue neutral platform delivers robust and highly scalable trading opportunities for all of its community members. Its network of 30 POPs (Points of Presence) across multiple FX liquidity centres offers a choice of access to multi-asset class venues.

Emmanuel Carjat, Managing Director of TMX Atrium, said, "As demand for FX capabilities continues to increase across our community, our members can be assured that TMX Atrium provides the capability they require now and in the future, as FX volumes continue to grow and trading strategies become more complex. Through on-going infrastructure enhancements, our network is perfectly positioned to scale with the growing demands of FX trading."

Dmitri Galinov, Chief Executive Officer of FastMatch, added, "TMX Atrium can quickly respond to and support our rapid growth within the FX community. Key to our decision to join TMX Atrium was the range of services they offer within Equinix LD4 and their significant and growing presence across Europe and Russia. We believe this service plus access combination will help us successfully continue to build out our FX community within these regions."
