“Our new product, Open Technology, is just one of the many new offerings that have come out of our multi-year infrastructure rebuild,” said Kevin O’Connor, head of Virtu’s broker-neutral Analytics and Workflow Technology division. “At launch, the initial set of APIs address client demand for direct access to the data underlying their transaction cost analysis and our Open Technology platform makes this accessible, even for non-programmers.”

Virtu’s TCA products are offered through Virtu’s broker-neutral Workflow Technology and Analytics division which is used by many buy-side and sell-side firms across the globe to help monitor, analyze and improve their quality of execution. Future APIs built on the Open Technology platform will enable access to data and services from other Virtu businesses including Workflow Technology and Execution Services.
