Aquis Exchange: Best Securities Trading Platform Europe 2020

Aquis Exchange is disrupting the trading world with a subscriptions pricing model that is bringing massive savings to the industry. Aquis has developed a pan-European alternative to traditional trading venues, one characterised by deep liquidity, high-value pricing plans and management of regulatory risks.

Price points at Aquis are fair and transparent, with a subscription model based on members’ message count rather than commission charged on trade values. Smaller firms often opt for the low-use subscription plan, while members with high traffic tend to prefer a structure that allows for unlimited trading.

The exchange’s high-performance matching engine boasts ultra-low latency, with a processing rate averaging 100,000 messages per second. Following a successful IPO launch in June 2018, the firm has more than doubled its share of the European market, making it the seventh-largest exchange. The steady onboarding of clients points to future growth.

The UK-based exchange recently opened new offices in Paris to cement their presence in Europe, post-Brexit. Aquis has been given the green light by the UK Financial Conduct Authority to proceed with the planned acquisition of NEX Exchange, expanding its reach to include primary, as well as secondary, markets. The CFI.co judging panel presents Aquis Exchange with the 2020 award for Best Securities Trading Platform (Europe).
