ATFX Connect brings liquidity to institutional players
ATFX Connect, the institutional arm of the broker, has been a very active subsidiary of the brokerage group. It was launched in 2019 to provide an efficient automated trading venue that delivers liquidity solutions to Hedge Funds, Asset Managers, Brokers, Private Banks, and other financial institutions.
The broker experienced such success within the institutional arena that it has decided to ditch its retail operation in the UK to sharpen its focus as it plans to develop an in-house aggregator and bridge this year.
The broker intends to grow its market share across established jurisdictions in Europe including the UK, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Latin America.
ATFX Connect has recently partnered with oneZero Financial Systems to enhance its liquidity offering for Spot FX, Precious Metals, and CFD products.
The institutional arm has also partnered with Centroid Solutions to use real-time analytical tools to monitor liquidity flow and other areas of potential risk.
In late July, the FCA-regulated institutional brokerage released its financial results for the full year ending October 31, 2020, which featured mixed performance across a number of key metrics, ranging from profit to revenues.
ATFX UK saw its operating revenue grow to £3.0 million in FY 2020, up from £2.23 million a year ago, or 35 percent higher year-over-year.
Despite revealing a significant increase in turnover for the period, the broker is still closing out the year at a loss. Specifically, the firm reported a net loss of £766,416 for 2020, nearly doubled when compared to a net loss of £383,861 in the previous year.
