Co-Location Hosting Services –
Electronic Trading

Over the past decade, trading technology has undergone a major transformation. Ten years ago, co-location was not in anyone’s vocabulary. Now it is almost a given in the high-speed trading community, and the search is on for new ways to maintain the so-called “infrastructure edge.”

A deluge of telecommunication companies and network vendors are pouring resources into the financial space, making it possible to build extremely fast networks of co-located servers. Telecommunication carriers are now building and marketing new fiber paths between major financial centers that are specifically tailored to financial customers. This new landscape has created a renewed interest in cross-asset trading that links market centers in Chicago, New York, London, Frankfurt and Tokyo.

The CME, Eurex, ICE and NYSE Liffe now offer high-speed access via co-location services. The expansion of co-location services has opened up a number of interesting arbitrage opportunities among these futures markets and also between these futures markets and related markets in other asset classes such as equities, equity options and foreign exchange.
