developing its FX services, sees this integration as a response to ongoing
client demand, in line with its core objective of delivering efficient,
data-driven institutional FX liquidity. Additionally, DMALINK has broadened
Scandinavian currency options through collaboration with Danske Bank, enabling
access to tailored liquidity.
