tZERO ATS Onboards Additional Broker-Dealers
tZero has been expanding its headcount as the firm was getting ready to sweeten its broker-dealer arm. tZERO anticipates trading more digital securities but says the addition of new assets have to carefully work through legal and financial due diligence, as well as regulatory matters to ensure that only high-quality assets trade on the tZERO ATS.
