"Banks, hedge funds and others active FX trading are moving more of their trading and liquidity sourcing away from ECNs and public markets and over to single banks for relationship pricing," said Yaacov Heidingsfeld, Chief Executive Officer at TraderTools. "In doing so they immediately benefit from higher fill rates and tighter spreads, but are then faced with the challenge of having 5 or 6 separate, single-bank platforms to deal with."

"TraderTools provides the only 2nd-generation aggregation solution based on one-to-one relationship pricing with liquidity providers. Because we do not charge the liquidity providers and our algorithms comply with their business rules while providing detailed trading statistics, both our customers and their LPs are able to build more transparent relationships. Traders can either make more money per execution or use this liquidity to gain more market share, while the LPs enjoy more consistent and predictable flow," continued Heidingsfeld.

He summarized, "This model creates a win-win situation and is helping the market move back to its roots – relationship trading with known entities as opposed to dark pools and mirage liquidity sources. Institutions are finding our on-demand, cloud-hosted service to be quicker to deploy and easier to operate than alternative platforms."
