NYSE Liffe, the European derivatives business of NYSE Euronext, will offer Brazilian trading firm’s direct electronic access to its London market.

NYSE Liffe, the European derivatives business of NYSE Euronext, will offer Brazilian trading firm’s direct electronic access to its London market, Finextra reports. The London-based futures exchange has already received approval from Brazil’s Comissão de Valores Mobiliários.

Customers in Brazil will get direct access to NYSE Liffe’s short term interest rate, bond, swapnote, equity and commodities futures and options. Until now, Brazilian customers were only able to access Liffe through a licensed intermediary. The move by Liffe is expected to help reduce costs and the speed of execution for those willing to connect to the market, adds Financial News.
