Description

This Financial Insights study examines the various trends supporting simultaneous FX-equity trading. This includes examining current technological and business challenges facing adoption on both the buy and sell sides.

"Cross-asset class trading has been a promise that many have given but few have supplied," said Damon Kovelsky, senior analyst in the Capital Markets Group. "The adoption of electronic trading has made it possible to link a cross-border FX and equity trade to execute at the same time, locking in settlement costs and creating efficiencies."
