In today’s fast-moving markets many derivatives brokerages seek electronic trading solutions that can be deployed quickly and easily, both for their staff and even more so for their clients, who may be widely scattered geographically. But these same firms naturally do not want to compromise on the trading functionality provided.

GL Tr@der can fulfil both of these apparently contradictory requirements: Tr@der is a full-function professional trading workstation, but uses ‘thin client’ web technology to enable easy set-up via the Internet, with no software to be installed. Clients can be trading literally within minutes at a GL Tr@der screen, and can be provided with access to the 50+ derivatives markets supported via GL TRADE’s gateways.

Our smart order routing work started, naturally enough, in the U.S., where there has been considerable fragmentation of both the equity and options markets for a number of years. GL TRADE has led developments of smart order routing products for U.S. equity brokerages and for options market makers. The same GL STREAM architecture has more recently been used to develop a smart order router in Europe to meet the requirements of the post-MiFID equity markets, in Australia, where new ATSes plan to open, and in Asia, for routing between an internal book and the regulated markets.
