New York-based FlexTrade has detailed further integration plans for Symphony's messaging platform.

FlexTrader EMS is a broker-neutral system covering equities, foreign exchange (FX), and listed derivatives across 200 trading venues and 20 dark pools. Symphony launched its messaging platform in August last year and has already drawn a number of high-profile investors, including Google, Societe Generale and UBS.

The integration of the Symphony platform into FlexTrader will be further expanded through the addition of search functionality for information and research on a given instrument directly from the FlexTrade blotter. It will also add functionality for fixed income liquidity discovery, inventory distribution and price negotiation, and the ability to capture chat logs in FlexTrade's Transaction Cost Analysis tool (FlexTCA).

"The future of electronic trading will be built on seamless and secure communications," says Andy Mahoney, director of business development for FlexTrade UK. "Integrating FlexTrader with Symphony ensures our clients can easily receive and distribute content directly from the trading blotter. The potential applications for this integration ensure our client's trading capabilities are kept well ahead of the curve now, and in the future."
