    FXSpotStream LLC, a subsidiary of LiquidityMatch LLC, has revealed that Credit Suisse has opted to join its Price Aggregation Service, providing Liquidity to FXSpotStream’s clients, the tenth such globally recognized bank, according to an FXSpotStream statement.

    The list of global banks that are Liquidity Providers to FXSpotStream has now grown to ten, a comprehensive list that includes BofA Merrill Lynch, BNP Paribas, Citi, Commerzbank AG, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and UBS.

    The last bank of this magnitude to sign with FXSpotStream was BNP Paribas in April 2014. Presently, FXSpotStream maintains a presence globally, serving major hubs across Tokyo, London, and New York.

    FXSpotStream has been the beneficiary of rampant expansion during 2014, having slingshotted out of the low volatility last summer that helped fuel business into 2015. The company specializes in FX forwards and swaps, along with aggregating liquidity from several providers.
