BSO
Network Solutions, the global ethernet network, cloud and hosting
provider, today announced its strategic partnership with DGCX, the
operator of the Middle East's leading derivatives exchange. DGCX customers now have access to BSO Network Solutions's
range of specialist connectivity services, including Market Data
Connect, which provides access to valuable market data without a need
for a dedicated connection.
Driven by the financial community's
demand for direct, high performance connectivity into key Middle
Eastern stock exchanges, this announcement highlights BSO Network
Solutions's dedication to ensuring its customers remain at the forefront of the trading sector.
Michael Ourabah, CEO at BSO Network Solutions, said, "We
have been supporting Dubai-based organisations for over six years. This
latest development is a natural progression for us, especially as an
increasing number of trading firms look to take advantage of an
extremely lucrative region. Powered by our network infrastructure, DGCX
has further cemented its position as the main growth exchange for the
Middle East region. The partnership also acts as a major competitive
differentiator for trading firms interested in widening their
portfolios."
Partnering with BSO Network Solutions has significantly strengthened DGCX's
market proposition and aligns the exchange with a network provider that
is constantly optimising its own network routes for the benefit of
clients. DGCX also now possesses the capability to significantly
increase the trading volumes it can handle, a critical component of
maintaining its attractiveness to global financial institutions.
Basab Banerjee, CTO at DGCX, continued, "We
recognised the need for a network partner with the capability to
provide both the lowest latencies in the market, as well as an extremely
high level of service. BSO Network Solutions's
knowledge and expertise of the Middle Eastern region, in particular its
understanding of the local telecoms landscape, is extremely valuable
for our clients, as are the dedicated account management and network
operations teams they support us with."
