euNetworks Named an Accredited Connectivity Partner by London Stock Exchange

London, UNITED KINGDOM – 19 November 2012  – euNetworks Group Limited, a pan-European bandwidth infrastructure provider, today announced it has been named an Accredited Connectivity Partner (ACP) by London Stock Exchange Group. Today London Stock Exchange Group operates a broad range of international equity, bond and derivatives markets. This partnership is an integral part of its new connectivity service, Customer Managed Connectivity (CMC), which allows customers direct access to its markets through ACPs.

As an ACP, euNetworks offers access to trading and market data from London Stock Exchange Group’s core markets, including London’s Main Market and the London Stock Exchange-owned multilateral trading facility, Turquoise. The addition of ACPs such as euNetworks to the CMC, means this community of members, non-members and independent software vendors have more flexibility when ordering connectivity services and market data access.

“We are pleased to welcome euNetworks as an Accredited Connectivity Partner,” said Nigel Harold, Head of Business Development – Technology for London Stock Exchange Group. “We are confident that euNetworks’ infrastructure and experience will benefit our Customer Managed Connectivity service, meeting the needs of clients who require connections via reliable, low latency networks.”

“With our continued commitment to deliver an industry leading service experience to financial organisations, becoming an Accredited Connectivity Partner was a natural step in our relationship with the London Stock Exchange and how we serve this market,” said David Selby, Vice President of Products and Strategy at euNetworks. “Our unique combination of deep fibre metropolitan footprint, pan European Ethernet network and euTrade ultra low latency services, provides London Stock Exchange customers with a broad range of solutions, from point-to-point fibre to ultra low latency connections to any-to-any networking. In addition, our approach to customer experience positions us well to support the needs of the Customer Managed Connectivity service going forward and we are excited by the opportunity to participate.”

euNetworks can support multiple applications, from data centre connectivity to enterprise office connectivity, to trading across its footprint.
