Execution Needs
Integral aims to meet the execution needs of key FX market participants including brokers, asset managers, hedge funds, and banks. Integral’s diverse range of platforms offers clients to trade different execution styles within an integrated environment. Integral introduced TrueFX to deliver an accessible and low-cost trading facility. The company also introduced Integral OCX, an ECN used by banks, brokers, and asset managers. According to the company, OCX is cross-connected with more than 250 liquidity sources. Growing numbers show a consistent increase in trading activity on all platforms owned by the company. TrueFX has been particularly beneficial for the company recently because of high adoption and low-cost offerings, making it one of the most preferred tools to fulfil the execution needs of the clients.
Last week, Integral extended its long-time partnership with Refinitiv to allow Refinitiv customers to continuously use Integral‘s price engine technology.
