ION has secured registration as an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) with BSE (formerly Bombay Stock Exchange) for its equity derivatives segment. This milestone follows official certification of ION’s Fidessa trading platform, which has been verified as fully compliant with all exchange rules and regulatory standards. The approval allows exchange members to utilise Fidessa for futures and options (F&O) trading, including Direct Market Access (DMA).
Through this integration, market participants can access over 20 advanced algorithmic trading strategies tailored to optimise execution within the Indian market. This supplements ION’s existing approvals for equities and algorithmic trading on the BSE, which is Asia’s oldest stock exchange with more than 5,700 listed companies.
The move ensures ION now provides comprehensive coverage across India’s primary trading venues. This includes both equity and derivative segments on the BSE and the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE). By consolidating its service offering across these major exchanges, ION strengthens its role as a technology partner for financial institutions and corporates operating within the Indian capital market ecosystem.
