The connectivity is provided using Atrium Network’s existing infrastructure at the heart of Nasdaq OMX’s production and data centre facilities in Stockholm.

Atrium Network said that the connectivity will enable clients take advantage of an ultra-low latency route in place from London to Stockholm and from Frankfurt into Stockholm.

Clients already on Atrium Network can benefit from access to the Cash Equity market and now the European Derivatives platform across Europe and into the Nordic markets using a choice of access options.

Nasdaq OMX senior vice president for Nordic Equities Market Bjorn Sibbern said offering customer’s choice in accessing Nasdaq OMX markets remains a key priority for them.

"Combining one of the world’s fastest trading platforms, Genium INET, with Atrium Network’s ultra-low latency connectivity will provide customers across Europe with a highly efficient end-to-end trading solution for Nordic derivatives," Sibbern said.
