TradeStation Group has unveiled TradeStation Europe, a fully licensed MiFID Investment Firm in the European Union, regulated by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) in the Netherlands, to operate as an investment services firm in Europe.
TradeStation Europe marks a step in TradeStation’s strategy to bring advanced analytics and trading tools, concierge services, and investment solutions to a broader global audience, says the firm.
The launch enables European investors, both retail and institutional, to access the same comprehensive product suite and trading infrastructure that TradeStation’s subsidiary, TradeStation Securities, has offered in the US for decades.
John Bartleman, president and CEO of TradeStation Group, remarks: "Traders around the world have long had to chain together disparate services just to reach US markets — and that complexity is a barrier we set out to eliminate. As markets grow increasingly global, investors expect seamless access to opportunities, no matter where they are.
“TradeStation Europe is a key step in building that global trading ecosystem: bringing together advanced technology, deep liquidity, and local regulatory strength to help empower traders everywhere.”
Peter Comstock, president of TradeStation Europe, adds: “Launching TradeStation Europe simultaneously expands our footprint and establishes a long-term presence in a market where demand for sophisticated trading continues to grow.”
