Tullett Prebon and Integral Partner to Launch tpSPOTDEAL - a new Spot FX Platform
More and more platforms are entering the market and it's a trend we cannot ignore - the market is becoming more and more fragmented. While this is a more institutional type of platform, certainly considering that Tullett Prebon and Integral are behind it, the same is happening in the retail platforms market as well. While the Metatrader platforms are here to stay for at least the next few years it seems that many of the new platforms will slowly take quite a lot of its market share and potentially most of the volume in the near future will pass through dozen of such platforms than just through Metatrader ones.
