Better liquidity

The deal with Swissquote means that brokers using Itexsys’ white label solutions will have access to better liquidity.

Currently, the white label provider mainly offers liquidity via its partnership with Gold-i.

The latter firm’s MT4 and MT5 bridges provide access to liquidity for brokers using Itexsys’ white label solutions

Gold-i and Itexsys have been working together for several years and announced the launch of an MT5 white label in July of last year.

Gold-i and Swissquote have also been working together for several years, with the former providing access to the broker’s liquidity via its MT4 bridge.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with itexsys to develop our FX and CFD offering,” said Jonathan Hirsch, a member of the FX Institutional team at Swissquote Bank. “This partnership is in line with our strategy to expand our footprint into the institutional sector.

“Our FX Price Distribution project was launched last year, and we are working actively to build up the integration of our pricing with different ECNs as well as bridge and technology providers.”
