London, April 2008: 4sight Financial Software has outlined plans to offer connectivity to Borsa Italiana members who wish to use the London Stock Exchange’s (LSE) TradElect platform following the recent merger with the LSE and subsequent migration of the MTA listed stocks to TradElect.

MTA market members migrating to the LSE’s TradElect platform will be able to take advantage of Connect, 4sight’s TradElect connectivity solution, which offers reliable sub-millisecond latency connectivity between trading systems and the financial markets. As an accredited LSE TradElect software provider 4sight is well placed to assist Borsa Italiana members in meeting the additional connectivity requirements generated by the transition.

Because Connect provides only connectivity it is ideal for Borsa Italiana members who wish to connect an existing OMS or any other trading system to the exchange using a single cost effective solution. 4sight will be showcasing the solution at the forthcoming TradeTech conference in Paris, allowing Borsa Italiana members to see how their connectivity needs can be met by the platform in advance of the migration.

“4sight Connect supports all European markets and 4sight’s client base includes a significant number of the world’s largest financial institutions.” says Paula Newman, 4sight Connect Account Director. “We greatly look forward to working with Borsa Italiana members to allow them to experience the benefits of a stable and reliable connectivity platform in times of high market volatility.”
