Object Trading Rolls Out DMA for CurveGlobal Launch
London Stock Exchange's interest-rate derivatives venue is due to launch next week following delay earlier this year

Object Trading will provide its DMA platform, a single gateway for normalized market data and order execution, for users to gain immediate access to the venue, similarly to services provided for the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX).
Originally announced in October 2015, the dedicated venue for interest-rate swaps, jointly owned by the London Stock Exchange (LSEG), seven major dealer banks and the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) was delayed until September this year to "ensure customer readiness."
"In addition to partnering with top-tier banks, we are working with technology firms like Object Trading, which are dedicated to enhancing market liquidity and already have a community of firms making markets around the world," said CurveGlobal CEO, Andy Ross, in a statement. "Today's news will make it easier for traders to provide liquidity on CurveGlobal from day one and with Object Trading's direct market access platform, this community can get immediate access to CurveGlobal."
Ross spoke to WatersTechnology about the CurveGlobal platform in more detail in a recent Waters Wavelength podcast.
