AXA Investment Managers selected Ullink.net, an arm of the transactional connectivity provider Ullink, to handle the connections with its counterparties.
AXA IM uses algorithmic trading — a method requiring volume handling and throughput.
“Thanks to its easy-to-implement XML API, the Ullink.net team was able to connect our proprietary application to the network within an impressive timeframe,” said Stephanie Dahnn, an AXA IM trader. “Our strategy is based on a multi-broker approach, the possibility to add FIX connections to brokers in only a matter of days is a strategic advantage for us.”
