Liquidnet has expanded its trading operations to include listed securities in Malaysia. Trading in Malaysian equities commences today.
Liquidnet provides the unique and efficient access to institutional-sized liquidity that portfolio managers and traders need to effectively realize regional and global investment ideas, says Lee Porter, head of Asia Pacific for Liquidnet. Emerging markets, such as Malaysia, represent considerable growth opportunities and are therefore increasingly important for global and regional portfolio managers looking to boost the performance of their investments.
With the addition of Malaysia, Liquidnet now offers trading access to 38 equities markets (plus London and Luxembourg GDRs) around the world.
Liquidnet began trading in listed securities from Israel on November 1 this year, following the addition of six other markets to its network this year: New Zealand, Mexico, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia and Slovenia.
