LONDON – 07 October 2021: MarketFactory, part of ION Markets, a leading global provider of trading, analytics, and risk management solutions for capital markets, announces a new partnership with Tradefeedr, the leading independent FX data and analytics provider.
The Tradefeedr data and analytics platform is now fully integrated within MarketFactory, enabling clients to review their trading markouts, impacts, and spreads directly with liquidity providers, using a common platform and shared data sets. Tradefeedr’s data analytics solution will be available as an add-on to new and existing customers using the award-winning MarketFactory service.
Tradefeedr has created a common, truly independent FX trading database allowing market participants across the sell-side, buy-side, regional banks, hedge funds, brokers, and central banks to connect, analyze their trading data, and collaborate. In June 2021, Tradefeedr launched its ground-breaking FX data analytics platform with more than 15 leading sell-side and 20 major buy-side firms onboarding and another 20 in the pipeline.

The combination of MarketFactory’s end-to-end connectivity and Tradefeedr’s unified, analysis-ready data is a compelling proposition in a market where real-time data-driven decision-making is key,” commented Eugene Markman, MarketFactory Chief Executive Officer.

About Tradefeedr:
Tradefeedr was established in 2018 by Balraj Bassi and Alexei Jiltsov, who had previously worked together at Lehman Brothers and launched Blacktree, a macro systematic hedge fund. In December 2020 the company received $3 million in funding from IPGL, the private investment company owned by Lord Michael Spencer, the founder of global markets company, ICAP plc and subsequently financial technology business, NEX plc. Seth Johnson, former CEO of NEX Markets, also supported the fund raising and was appointed as Tradefeedr’s Chairman. Tradefeedr aims to level the trading analytics playing field by allowing the sell-side to submit trading data on behalf of their buy-side clients.
