The London Stock Exchange (LSE) has set up a new pricing structure for high-volume traders, Financial Times reports. The change comes as the bourse seeks to head off concerns from U.K. regulators regarding trading venues offering inappropriate incentives to high-volume traders.
The pilot scheme will encourage increased liquidity and improved execution likelihood on the order book. The new prices will be offered from October to March and will apply to the LSE’s U.K. equity and international order books. Traders can opt from two packages, one with a £50,000 monthly subscription but lower trading fees and one with a £5,000 subscription and higher trading fees.
