October 1st, 2008 - NYFIX and SIX x-clear announce intent to enter into a partnership to develop a CCP solution for the NYFIX Euro Millennium dark pool
NYFIX and SIX x-clear Announce Plans to Deliver a Central Counterparty Solution for Euro Millennium Dark Pool
Marco Strimer, CEO, SIX x-clear: “The choice of SIX x-clear as the clearing partner for Euro Millennium provides clients with a customer-owned, customer-driven service provider which believes that both service and price are important within the clearing space."
NYFIX, Inc. and SIX x-clear, have announced their intent to enter into a partnership to develop a CCP solution for the NYFIX Euro Millennium dark pool. The solution is expected to be available by the end of 2008.
Tim Wildenberg, Head of Direct Execution Services Europe at UBS Investment Bank, and a Euro Millennium client, said: "Recent events have justified the need for CCPs in an increasingly automated world. NYFIX Euro Millennium is enhancing its offering by making the smart choice of SIX x-clear, a CCP with a proven track record of delivering robust risk management and competitive post-trade costs."
“Today’s announcement about our plan to partner with SIX x-clear marks a significant milestone in the growth and development of Euro Millennium,” said Chris Smith, Director, NYFIX International. “We are very pleased to be able to partner with a company that holds the same vision for efficient, cost-effective pan-European equity trade settlement. Since its launch earlier this year, we have seen liquidity grow dramatically in Euro Millennium and we have been working with our clients to ensure that dark trading delivers significant benefits, including price improvement and reduced market impact. One of the most important aspects in selecting SIX x-clear as our partner was the ability to ensure that mid and small-cap stocks traded on Euro Millennium could be settled as effectively as the most liquid large-cap stocks.”
Marco Strimer, CEO of SIX x-clear stated: “The choice of SIX x-clear as the clearing partner for Euro Millennium provides clients with a customer-owned, customer-driven service provider which believes that both service and price are important within the clearing space. Our real-time risk management systems provide clients with a comfort level in addition to the highly efficient and comprehensive service they expect from us. The highly automated open system architecture allows seamless integration with Euro Millennium and a short time-to-market. We look forward to working with NYFIX and continuing to develop innovative services for our mutual clients.” click here to return to the top of the page
