About Currenex
Founded in 1999, Currenex - a wholly owned subsidiary of State Street Corp - offers institutional clients cost-effective, electronic access to the $3+ trillion-a-day global FX market. The Currenex trading platform uses innovative, patented technologies in order execution, liquidity aggregation, risk management and STP to service a diverse set of institutional clients. Its white-label solution provides a fully automated, customizable platform for brokers and banks to offer their own electronic trading system.
The challenge
By adopting leading-edge technologies, Currenex is known for providing each of its key markets with fast, secure and reliable trading environments and access to abundant liquidity. To serve its growing Asian client base, Currenex needed a presence as close as possible to the regional trading community, with the lowest achievable latency.
The KVH difference
Using KVH proximity services and colocation at a KVH Tokyo data center, connected over KVH’s ultra low latency network, Currenex reduced the distance between its platform and its customers and counterparties - the kind of advantage KVH delivers across its Capital Markets Solutions.
