WHY THEY WON
In a category that has been largely dominated by Refinitiv/Thomson Reuters, and even S&P Global and Interactive Data, BSO’s victory came as something of a surprise. Voters were likely swayed by the company’s shift to the cloud and plans for crypto advancement.
WHAT’S NEW
BSO has optimized its routes to ensure that, in a post-Brexit world, traders can access the lowest latencies on key routes.
The company became an approved international connectivity to the NSE International Exchange in GIFT City.
BSO established network solutions for the crypto and digital asset trading community with the launch of its new Crypto Connect solution.
WHAT’S TO COME
Over the next 12 months, BSO plans to expand its radio frequency network to more locations.
The company will further enhance key routes, starting with Tokyo, São Paulo and Shanghai.
BSO will enhance its low-latency network by implementing hollow-core fiber.
