Exponential-e, the next-generation-network provider, based in the City of London, today announced it has become an accredited member of the European Partner programme run by Level 3 Communications. The appointment, as a Level 3 “European Master Reseller”, follows the launch of Exponential-e’s ‘Gold Standard’ financial trading infrastructure.
Exponential-e’s financial network is optimised for high-frequency trading. It connects directly into key Exchanges, ECNs, Brokers and trading platforms and makes crucial market connectivity - a simple cross-connect away. The service includes a “multicast” feature which broadcasts financial trading data to servers and matching engines simultaneously and eliminates unnecessary delay in transmission times.
Exponential-e provides access to multiple high demand asset classes, instruments and venues. Now, with the entry of Exponential-e to the Level 3 European Partner Programme, Exponential-e is able to provide a wide range of Level 3 connectivity solutions that span Europe and North America.
Lee Wade, Managing Director of Exponential-e, said “Our new express routes provide the shortest open path for trading currency pairs and therefore the lowest latencies available. We offer roundtrip speeds between London and New York of 68ms and between Chicago and New York of 17.4ms”. Lee went on to say “Our directly connected model means services can be enabled within days. Multiple feeds can be directly delivered into black box architecture at wire-speed”.
Scalability, low latency, speed of implementation, flexibility and the ability to access a wide range of trading instruments are paramount to today’s financial institutions. This new relationship with Level 3 extends Exponential-e’s compelling range of solutions and options across Europe and North America enabling Exponential-e to provide transatlantic financial network based solutions.
