Dubbed as Total Touch, the new platform enables access to block liquidity and has completed trading of more than 3 billion shares in US single stocks and ETFs since its inception in 2010.
The Total Touch allows its customers to gain electronic access to Citi’s liquidity, including US stocks, ETFs and now equities in Brazil.
Further, the combination of trader experience with systematic quantitative technology not only boosts accuracy, convenience, scale, but also economics of overall liquidity and risk capital.
Latam Trading head Fabio Gheilerman said, "Leveraging Citi’s global presence and local footprint, we are able to respond to client demands for electronic execution with price protection and ultimately help prevent slippage in fast moving situations."
Cash Equities Trading global head Kevin Russell commented, "The intersection of experienced human trader knowledge and robust electronic capabilities creates an opportunity for market participants to take advantage of a hybrid approach to investing."
Managing nearly 200 million customer accounts, Citi does business in more than 160 countries and jurisdictions, offering consumer banking and credit, corporate and investment banking, securities brokerage, transaction services, and wealth management.
