October 2nd, 2008 - LeveL ATS agrees to allow Penserra to provide its clients with direct access to LeveLs non-displayed crossing system.

PENSERRA SECURITIES AND LEVEL ATS SIGN SPONSORED ACCESS PACT


 

Whit Conary, President, LeveL: “We are committed to delivering a large and diversified pool of liquidity in a stableand cost effective environment. The addition of Penserra helps us achieve these goals.”

Penserra Securities and the LeveL ATS  announce an agreement that allows Penserra to provide its clients with direct access to LeveL’s non-displayed crossing system.

The arrangement gives Penserra clients flexibility to source liquidity directly in LeveL if they so choose, or to continue relying on the firm’s accomplished, trusted single-stock and portfolio trading desks to reach LeveL and other venues. Because Penserra is a government-certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), the deal also provides a convenient way for institutions to fulfill their MBE targets without foregoing direct-access options.

 “LeveL is one of the market’s biggest non-displayed pools of liquidity, so we’re very excited that our clients now have the ability to access it directly,” said George Madrigal, managing director and co-founder of Penserra, and a 13-year veteran of Barclays Global Investors, where he served as a portfolio manager and head of transition management.

“We are very pleased to have Penserra and their clients as participants in LeveL ATS,” said Whit Conary, President of LeveL. “We are committed to delivering a large and diversified pool of liquidity in a stableand cost effective environment. The addition of Penserra helps us achieve these goals.” click here to return to the top of the page
