Fidessa Presents Its Tailored Solution for Borsa Italiana Members

Fidessa is showcasing its European trading solution at an event at Palazzo Mezzanotte, Milan, Italy. Fidessa has seen high levels of interest in its trading solution from both local Italian and international financial institutions impacted by the forthcoming merger between the LSE and Borsa Italiana. MTA market members migrating to London Stock Exchange's (LSE) TradElect platform can take advantage of Fidessa's established TradElect connectivity and its proven trading technology.

With over 100 LSE members already using its trading solution, Fidessa is the leading supplier of software for brokers trading on the LSE's TradElect platform.
