Spectrum Markets welcomes the expansion of Societe Generale’s product offering to Italy

Spectrum Markets (“Spectrum”), the pan-European trading venue for securitised derivatives, announced today one of its members, Societe Generale, is expanding the geographic availability of some of its daily constant leverage products and vanilla warrant products listed on Spectrum to include Italy.

Spectrum’s plug-and-play infrastructure, and its novel single European ISIN, enabled the global financial services firm to quickly and easily extend the scope of its geographic coverage within the trading venue, without going through the process of listing new instruments.

The addition of these financial instruments, issued by Societe Generale, expands the range of investment solutions available to Italian retail investors via Spectrum, allowing them to benefit from a deeper pool of European liquidity.

Spectrum will continue to manage a unique, international order book for each individual instrument listed by Societe Generale, that also incorporates trading volumes from Spain, Sweden, Norway and Finland, where some of these products were first made available at the end of last year.

“We’re very pleased to see Societe Generale expanding the scope of its relationship with Spectrum so soon after listing its first products with us. The firm is well known for its pioneering approach within the industry, and we look forward to continuing to work together on delivering our shared goal of providing European retail investors an innovative, accessible, safe and transparent financial market experience,” says Nicky Maan, CEO at Spectrum Markets.

“Our experience with Spectrum Markets has been very good so far, and we’ve been pleased with the way we were able to simply and efficiently add Italy to the scope of our offering on the trading venue. We see significant demand for our range of securitised derivative products from retail investors across Europe and we very much look forward to seeing how this partnership continues to develop in the coming years,” said Didier Imbert, Head of Public Distribution Europe for Societe Generale.
