Connecting institutional trading participants to pan-European liquidity
How Zenith works
We provide access to Best Execution for orders using a virtual consolidated order book. This combines our order book with visible price depth from major European primary and secondary lit markets. This unique calculation gives institutions access to Europe-wide liquidity, using a single exchange connection to Equiduct.
We do things differently
As Equiduct is a market segment of Börse Berlin — a Regulated Market — we operate a non-discretionary trading system with open and fair access. In a traditional model, liquidity providers set the prices they will buy and sell stocks for. At Equiduct, we set the price our Liquidity Providers stand behind, based on the best prices visible in the consolidated book.
Benefits of connecting to Zenith
Best execution trading with low market impact
Trade the full quantity at the EBBO in a single execution with no automatic impact to the venues that contribute to price formation
Not subject to double volume caps
Equiduct is a fully lit pre-and post-trade Regulated Market, meaning the Zenith service does not operate under a reference price waiver or negotiated trade waiver and is therefore not subject to the double volume caps
Counterparty Choice
Participants can elect to use an interoperable central counterparty (CCP) or settlement can take place bilaterally, where possible, between a broker and an LP
Access to Market Data
Additional option to access market data, at a reduced cost or which can be offset against trading fees
