Equinix and Transaction Network Services said that TNS' Secure Trading Extranet is now offering low-latency connectivity through Equinix's International Business Exchange data centers in Australia and Singapore.
This announcement follows TNS deployments in Chicago, New York, London and Frankfurt.
The Asia-Pacific market presents significant growth potential to the electronic trading community as Asian exchange volumes continue to grow and as demand for interconnecting multiple venues, participants and geographies accelerates, Equinix said in a statement.
TNS' global network infrastructure provides services to over 40 countries around the world and 1,600 end-points on its Extranet.
"Supported by TNS' connectivity, our facilities in Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore become an even stronger platform for both new and current financial participants to build in and use for accessing Asia-Pacific markets," said John Knuff, general manager, Equinix Financial Services. "Our IBX clients can benefit from this new high-performance, low latency infrastructure in addition to Equinix's broad range of offerings, other financial participants and technologies."
Alan Schwartz, President for TNS' Financial Services Division, said: "The presence of a robust electronic trading ecosystem within Equinix will allow us to increase our connectivity and build on our growing client base. We believe our joint clients will greatly benefit from this new low latency network connectivity, enabling them to capitalize on the improved speed and reliability that is key to today's electronic trading."
