Avelacom Expands Latin American Reach with Direct Connection to nuam Exchange Infrastructure

Subscribe to our newsletter

Avelacom, the global provider of low-latency network solutions, has expanded its presence in Latin America by establishing a direct connection to nuam, the holding company integrating the stock exchanges of Chile, Colombia, and Peru. The company has deployed a new physical point of presence (PoP) at the Equinix ST1 data centre in Santiago, Chile. This infrastructure allows institutional clients to access real-time market data and order routing through ultra-low latency connectivity, supporting both individual and unified access across all three nuam markets.

The expansion builds on Avelacom’s existing regional footprint, which includes support for the Brazilian Exchange (B3) since 2020 and a partnership with Argentina’s BYMA. By linking Chile, Colombia, and Peru to its established networks in Brazil and Argentina, Avelacom has created a comprehensive infrastructure layer. This connectivity enables efficient cross-market trading and arbitrage strategies between Latin American markets and major global financial hubs in North America, Europe, and Asia.

This development reflects a shift toward more integrated, cross-border trading strategies within the region. By providing predictable performance and high-speed access, the infrastructure is specifically designed for latency-sensitive operations, such as algorithmic trading and market making, ensuring that global investors can operate with the reliability and speed required for modern financial environments.
