Whether the US Security Exchanges ever figure out how to deal with
demutualization may soon become a mute point. The European Exchanges
appear to be making much greater strides (and at a much quicker pace) at
accomplishing a true International Trading platform. The NYSE may one day
become a very lovely museum.
New European ISV Eyes Entrance Into U.S; NYSE, ISE, CBOE and CME on Hit
List
Actant.com, a Zug, Switzerland-based independent software vendor that has
yet to penetrate the American market, is now thinking about integrating
its automated market making system--dubbed Aqtor--with trading engines
employed by the International Securities Exchange (ISE), the Chicago
Mercantile Exchange (CME), the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) and
a host of U.S. stock exchanges.
To date, Aqtor has only been linked to a pair of European derivatives
markets: Eurex and the London International Financial Futures and Options
Exchange. Within the next year, however, Actant hopes to interconnect its
electronic market making system not only with a multitude of U.S.
exchanges but also with a pair of electronic communications networks
(ECNs).
