Europe Now Has 45 Trading Venues. But No Consolidated Tape.

September 8, 2009
The passing of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) by the European Commission almost two years ago on Nov. 1, 2007, paved the way for the launch of a slew of new European electronic trading venues.
These multilateral trading facilities, or MTFs, compete against the established exchanges. Throughout 2008 and this year, several MTFs have made their debut in the European market including Turquoise, Chi-X Europe and Burgundy.
The launch of these venues has given established exchanges such as the London Stock Exchange a new source of competition. In fact, the LSE saw its trading volume drop from 77.9 billion shares in July 2008 to 56.6 billion shares this July.
But the rise of these venues has also created an abundance of market data for fund managers and broker dealers to contend with.
