BNP Paribas and Fidessa Partner to Provide Buy-Side Clients with Derivatives Workstation

Fidessa and BNP Paribas have entered into a partnership through which the bank will provide its buy-side clients with access to Fidessa's futures and options workstation. BNP Paribas originally implemented Fidessa's derivatives trading platform in 2016 to support its global futures and options trading operations from hubs in Chicago, London and Hong Kong. Under this new agreement, BNP Paribas will distribute Fidessa’s derivatives trading platform, branded Cortex Listed, to its institutional clients across all regions, providing them with fully-hosted execution capabilities. In addition, BNP Paribas will have the ability to offer its clients access to the Fidessa GT multi-broker workstation providing them with choice, flexibility and market access across global markets.
