The firm reported that its latest upgrade adds a number of key functionalities that support the growth of the Trading Platform among international traders, particularly in regional markets, thus offering local products on the one terminal, thus reducing trader screen –real estate.

Engin Yikilmazoglu, Chairman and President of The IKON Group of Companies, commented about the advancement in a comment to Forex Magnates: “As IKON Group continues to expand its product lines and experiences growth across all metrics (clients, volume and assets); we have invested resources to ensure our technology meets our client’s requirements. We realize how important screen space is for clients. By having all their orders on one screen, clients have greater flexibility to follow all the markets they intend to trade.”

The firm has been extending its global footprint, a spokesperson for the company added: “Our recent expansion into regional/localized markets required enhancement of our forwards and deliverable products. Prodigy offers these local financial institutions the ability to manage their Spot/Forwards and Options books on one platform. Now we can offer all our multiple products under one platform."
