This partnership is the next chapter in a long-established and successful relationship and allows EBS BrokerTec to accelerate its product development. The deal, valued at $65 million over a three-year period, will see ICAP expand into China, a key growth market for the business, with EBS BrokerTec establishing a local office and development centre in Shanghai.Īfter a thorough RFP process, CFETS selected EBS BrokerTec for its established and robust infrastructure capabilities, unique seamless and integrated trading technology, proven innovation and development of products such as EBS Direct and BrokerTec Direct, and a strong pipeline of product development, which is scalable and aligned to CFETS’ growth strategy.ĬFETS and ICAP have collaborated successfully for more than nine years since the founding of Shanghai CFETS ICAP – a joint venture to provide broking and information services in the onshore and offshore interbank foreign exchange, money market, bond and derivatives market.

ICAP was chosen to cooperate with CFETS on the core trading components of NGTS. Īn important infrastructure service provider, CFETS has been planning its “Next Generation Trading System” (NGTS) for a number of years.
The technology will be delivered by EBS BrokerTec, ICAP’s market-leading electronic FX and fixed income business, which will form part of NEX Group plc, following the completion of the transaction with Tullett Prebon to dispose of ICAP’s global hybrid broking and associated information businesses.
