Our goal is to combine the best of both worlds to help our clients further their investment objectives across cash equities, futures and options. After an exhaustive tender process, ION clearly stood head and shoulders above all other derivatives technology providers. We look forward to integrating the XTP Suite into OptionsDesk to complement our desk-broking services.
