ConvergEx Millennium and VortEx
Operating two alternative trading systems (ATSs), ConvergEx offers both buy-side and sell-side customers anonymous access to US markets, reducing information leakage, market impact and execution expenses. By offering two ATSs each with unique subscribers and matching models, clients benefit from access to a deep and diverse source of liquidity. Millennium is an independent ATS in the US equity markets, while VortEx is ConvergEx’s high-speed continuous dark pool. VortEx flow includes algorithmic, SOR and dark flow from ConvergEx execution desks, institutional clients and wholesale customers. |
