Omniex, a front-to-back office investment and trading platform for institutional investors to access the crypto-asset markets, and Gemini, the U.S. regulated crypto exchange, announced they have cross-connected in Equinix’s low-latency NY5 data center that caters to large financial institutions and electronic trading ecosystems.
The team of Omniex has developed an execution management system (EMS) deployed in Equinix’s NY5 data center, alongside a full featured portfolio and order management system (POMS) in the cloud. The partnership aims to deliver the connectivity, features and high-performance trading experience institutional investors demand.
“Fragmented and immature crypto market structure has left institutional investors at a loss for robust solutions, forcing some providers to resort to tweaking platforms engineered for other asset classes. Cross-connecting to Gemini in NY5 further expands the unrivaled level of reliability and performance our clients expect and need to execute on their investment strategies.”
“Omniex shares our core philosophy that technology must be purpose-built for institutional investors to address the regulatory and market challenges they face in crypto assets. As our ecosystem continues to mature, it will be vital to work with firms that understand the intricacies of institutional operations, while delivering best-in-class technology that empowers investors.”
