Nomura has selected Fidessa’s trading platform to support its futures and options trading activity.
This will handle all of Nomura’s listed derivatives business across the firm's global operations. Michelle Neal, global head of electronic markets, futures & options and derivatives clearing, comments: "Regulations are reshaping the derivatives markets, and it is essential that we have a world-class technology infrastructure to meet these new requirements on behalf of our clients. Fidessa is known for the strength and sophistication of its order management system. Having its robust technology to support our derivatives trading activity will help us deliver market-leading results for our clients."
Nomura will also leverage Fidessa's specialised derivatives algorithms, including benchmark algos and synthetic order types. A centralised risk and compliance function provides full audit trails and reporting functionality to meet regulatory demands. The platform will be implemented in the US and Europe in the early part of 2013, with Asia Pacific and Japan to follow.
