The tech provider expands multi-asset trading capabilities through new integration with a major exchange operator.
It gains access to real-time U.S. and European market feeds, providing enhanced client trading capabilities.
Centroid
Solutions has completed an integration with Cboe Global Markets that
gives the technology provider's broker clients direct access to real-time
market data from one of the world's largest exchange operators.
Centroid Solutions
Partners With Cboe for Enhanced Market Data Access
The
partnership allows brokers using Centroid's multi-asset connectivity platform
to stream live pricing data for equities, options, indices and derivatives
from both U.S. and European markets directly into their trading systems.
The
integration connects Centroid's Bridge Engine and Trading Ecosystem
platforms with Cboe's market data feeds, giving broker clients the ability to
offer their traders pricing information across multiple asset classes
without requiring separate data subscriptions.

Cristian
Vlasceanu, CEO of Centroid
Solutions, said the partnership addresses growing demand from brokers
looking to expand their product offerings. “With Cboe's renowned
U.S. equities feeds, along with its extensive European equities and derivatives
datasets, brokers can utilize integrated market data directly in their
trading activities,” he stated.
Brokers can
now access Cboe's U.S. equities data alongside the exchange operator's
European equities and derivatives information through a single integration
point. The setup aims to reduce the technical complexity and costs
typically associated with connecting to multiple data providers.
Technology Integration
Targets Broker Efficiency
The
collaboration reflects broader trends in financial technology where
connectivity providers are bundling services to help smaller brokers
compete with larger institutions that typically have more resources for
technology infrastructure.
Cboe
operates exchanges and provides market data services across North America,
Europe and Asia-Pacific. The company's data offerings include real-time
pricing, historical information and analytics across multiple asset
classes. It recently hired
Ben Gough as Global Head of FX Liquidity Management, who previously worked
at UBS for over 14 years.
For
Centroid, the partnership represents another step in building comprehensive
technology solutions for brokers who want to offer multi-asset trading
without investing heavily in separate systems for each market
or instrument type. A month ago, the company also
partnered with online trading broker XS.com to expand access to its
liquidity services for retail trading companies.
The
integration is now available to Centroid's existing client base and
new customers seeking to expand their trading capabilities across U.S. and
European markets.
Centroid
serves over 350 financial firms across more than 50 countries, ranging from
startup brokers to established banks and proprietary trading companies. The
Dubai-based company provides trading technology infrastructure and
connectivity solutions designed to help brokers expand their market reach
and improve execution capabilities.

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.
