Iress Market Technology continues Canadian growth


The Canadian arm of Iress Market Technology has signed a four-year agreement which will give its customers direct access to a number of Canada’s stock exchanges.
The group has partnered with Canada’s TMX Group, which operates the Toronto Stock Exchange, TSX Venture Exchange and the Montreal Exchange. Under the agreement Iress’ market data and trading platforms will be hosted through the TMX Group’s primary data centre until 2014.
Iress Canada president and chief executive Jim Davies said the group is the leading trading platform provider in that country, and one that is able to offer customers advantages through direct access to stock exchanges.
