GLMX Technologies has recorded a new milestone as the platform reaches US$1.5 trillion in daily balances.
According to the global technology solutions firm, these balances represent the trading activity of global financial institutions that utilise GLMX technology to negotiate and execute securities financing transactions (SFTs).
Since its inception, the platform has recorded US$186 trillion in volume executed via its technology, the firm says. Its client-base, across 110 individual firms, includes 40 sell-side institutions and a mix of hedge funds, asset managers, sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, insurance companies, money market funds, corporate treasurers, prime brokers and securities lenders.
The firm was recently named Trading System of the Year at this year鈥檚 网爆吃瓜 Finance Times Industry Excellence Awards.
Commenting on the achievement, CEO and co-founder of GLMX Glenn Havlicek says: 鈥淓xceeding US$1.5 trillion in balances reflects the more than 120 per cent year-over-year growth we saw on 30 June of this year.
鈥淔urther, it speaks to the amazing effort of GLMX employees and the speed at which the money market industry is welcoming innovative technology. The success GLMX has achieved in the securities finance market is replicable across the greater money market ecosystem, which is where we have been expanding our focus and will continue to do so moving forward.鈥�
Andy Wiblin, chief product officer at GLMX, adds: 鈥淭his rapid growth, in large part, has been driven by the technology and user experience provided by GLMX. We are excited to apply this same playbook as we expand the product set to achieve our vision of creating a single application to unify access to historically fragmented liquidity pools.鈥�
