A Major Trading Technology Provider
Horizon has been providing algorithmic and electronic trading solutions for more than two decades, currently having access to more than 80 exchanges. Earlier, the company partnered with the brokerage arm of Santander Bank Polska, which became the first introducing market maker for the Warsaw Stock Exchange' Global Connect' equity market.
Meanwhile, Horizon has been expanding its offerings as well. Earlier this year, it updated its cross-asset electronic platform Horizon Extend and now plans to expand its Trading-as-a-Service (TasS) offering.
The company's ambitions to capture the Southeast Asian markets became prominent with its Singapore office launch last September. The office's location was strategic, aiming to bolster the company's sales in the Asia Pacific region.
Furthermore, Horizon has a presence in France, Canada, Hong Kong, China, and Thailand. The company moved its ASEAN Sales Manager, Michael Lim, from the Bangkok office to Singapore to strengthen the position of the new office.
