Resona becomes the first Japanese investment manager to implement BBH’s automated third party FX solution, InfoFX, as part of the development.

The Foreign Exchange Professionals Association (FXPA) labelled the updates “well-intentioned but flawed”, namely due to the overly complicated language used in the proposals and the lack of practical detail.

New appointment previously held positions at both Deutsche Bank and NatWest Markets.

The TRADE sits down with Rick Lodder, algorithmic execution specialist at MN, to discuss the important role of algos in levelling up the front-office tech stack, potential technological barriers when it comes to FX instruments, and the increasingly strong case for in-house algorithmic execution platforms.

Having received authorisation from the FCA, the OptAxe trading venue centralises FX options liquidity to increase trading opportunities.

Incoming individual previously led the launch of EBS Direct into a new bilateral FX trading venue – which is now owned by CME Group.

The TRADE sits down with Joseph Forde, FX trader at Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH), to unpack the best approach to panels, highlighting the key factors when it comes to analysing bank performance, the importance of a flexible structure, and what should be front of mind to maintain effective, long-lasting relationships with liquidity providers.

The FX solution from ION was chosen for its end-to-end processing functionality of FX cash and derivative products.

The move follows LMAX’s acquisition of Cürex last year, increasing the business’ proposition for asset managers and other buy-side participants.
