Colt Technology Services today announced the introduction of new ultra-low latency connectivity routes, Market Data and Managed Services in Thailand, delivering best-in-class latency speeds between Bangkok and other major capital cities in Asia.
With this expansion of its ultra-low latency network to Thailand, Colt can now offer the fastest connectivity in the market between the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) and between SET to the Singapore Exchange (SGX). It has also launched its suite of MarketPrizm services to capital markets clients wishing to setup low latency trading infrastructure within the SET in Bangkok.
“Colt has been a leading and long-term connectivity provider for financial institutions in key liquidity hubs globally, and this announcement is an extension of this. Our secure and stable network is trusted by thousands of clients around the world, including Tier 1 financial institutions,” says Masato Hoshino, Head of Asia and Representative Director & President at Colt. “We enable the fastest execution speeds with our Ultra Low-Latency Networks in a competitive market, leading many financial services companies to choose Colt’s services to execute their trading. Our constantly expanding network, which now includes Thailand, will help our customers thrive in the Asia-Pacific.”
Dr Rinjai Chakornpipat, SET Senior Executive Vice President, said “Colt’s connectivity delivers a high-performance environment to market participants. Having Colt as a service provider at SET Data Center allows international clients to effectively access SET.”
Colt is also investing in other parts of its product portfolio for capital markets customers. It recently opened a new Point of Presence (PoP) for its PrizmNet infrastructure in Sydney, expanding the capability of its Market Data services in Australia. Colt’s Market Data services provides customers with market data feeds for equities, derivatives, commodities and FX from more than 50 exchanges and liquidity venues worldwide. The additional PoP in Sydney will enable and activate new markets for PrizmNet customers in the region.
