NEW YORK & LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Liquidnet, a leading technology-driven agency execution specialist, today announced the launch of a pre-trade analytics offering for listed derivatives.
Available in Europe and the US, this solution provides actionable intelligence, such as volume, liquidity, activity, and projected volume to inform the decision-making process prior to the point of execution.
Mike du Plessis, Global Head of Listed Derivatives at Liquidnet, said: “Historically, banks have dominated the provision of solutions and execution services to the buy side. This is changing. With connectivity, staging, algo execution and execution performance management becoming increasingly commoditized, the battle to differentiate has moved to new grounds. It is here that Liquidnet is well placed to compete given our technology and talent, our pure agency model, and our approach to working with institutional asset managers to design market-led, innovative solutions.”
du Plessis, who brings more than two decades of experience in building agency execution services at large investment banks, joined Liquidnet back in March 2022. He leads a team of specialists currently based in London, New York, Boston and Connecticut.
