Through the addition of Santander to the Trade Hub, CMA demonstrates LatAm market leadership of ON-NET financial exchanges and institutions. Trade Hub is a neutral execution, direct market access (DMA), algorithmic and multi-asset trading platform for global participants investing in Latin American securities, futures and options.
New York, NY, March 09, 2010 --(PR.com)-- CMA the leading market data, order management and connectivity provider of Latin American exchange trading establishes FIX connectivity with Grupo Santander over the CMA Trade Hub Global Network.
Through the addition of Santander to the Trade Hub, CMA demonstrates LatAm market leadership of ON-NET financial exchanges and institutions. Trade Hub is a neutral execution, direct market access (DMA), algorithmic and multi-asset trading platform for global participants investing in Latin American securities,
futures and options.
“Market messages from remote or DMA participants can be sent in and out of the Trade Hub platform enabling trades in the Santander markets of: Spain, the US, the UK, Mexico and Brazil,” states Mr. Mario Chuman, Managing Director of CMA. “Our network community of LatAm Exchange members and their clients can now access Santander and their applications and services now that through Trade Hub’s as an ON-NET destination,” Mr. Chuman concludes.
As global futures and options, equity and foreign exchange markets converge on Brazil, Russia, India and China, also known as the BRIC, counter party access becomes the vital foundation of a strong market position. The costs associated with turning these relationships into practice have in many respects held back the potential the markets have to offer.
“Santander has taken the step to certify with CMA’s Trade Hub network because of the ease and flexibility of integrating their with CMA’s platform through the FIX protocol,” Mr. Billy Ochoa, Head of Sales - Exchange Traded Derivatives, Santander Mexico said, “Essentially the thousands of workstations deployed with CMA can communicate with Santander’s platforms which dramatically increase our footprint and allow for new client connections right to the markets we provide execution in,” Mr. Ochoa adds.
The Mexican Derivatives Exchange known as “MexDer,” attracts a large number of international investors particularly in the US, as it has processes in place with regulators to allow for remote access accounts for clearing without more traditional tax implication. International investors, also interested in the Mexican Peso based derivatives contracts on MexDer are represented by firms such as Grupo Santander who offer a wide range of positions and market leading strategies for trading Mexican Derivatives.
