The collaboration follows a period of joint design work to adapt LSEG’s systems to Brazilian regulatory and market requirements, supporting A5X’s platform development and rapid deployment.

Under the agreement, LSEG will provide an integrated market infrastructure suite including pre-trade risk management, ultra-low latency matching, real-time surveillance, market data distribution, clearing, settlement, and risk management services. A5X will integrate these technologies into its advanced platform aimed at boosting growth, liquidity, and innovation in the Brazilian market.

A5X targets regulatory testing by Q4 2025 and plans a commercial launch in H1 2026. The partnership seeks to establish a seamless, end-to-end derivatives and futures trading ecosystem in Brazil, enhancing product innovation, price discovery, and operational efficiency.
