What is BlockCross?

Instinet has expanded its innovative trading platform by launching BlockCross, which aims to tackle the complexities of executing large block trades in today's diverse and fragmented financial markets. This Alternative Trading System (ATS) offers unique features and ample liquidity, allowing for the effective and discreet execution of large transactions while reducing their market impact. BlockCross supports the crossing of trades by leveraging natural liquidity from a wide array of buy- and sell-side participants. Additionally, Instinet's vast network of institutional clients—drawn from its offerings in portfolio trading, commission management, and research services—greatly enhances the liquidity possibilities within BlockCross. With the sophisticated integration of BlockCross's order blotter, users can tailor their interaction with the ATS directly from their front-end interface. They can set alerts, respond to organic trading opportunities, define auto-execution criteria, communicate their interests to selected counterparties, and identify methods to boost block trade efficiency. This forward-thinking strategy not only simplifies the trading process but also equips users with the tools necessary to make better-informed trading decisions as market conditions continue to shift. Consequently, BlockCross represents a significant advancement in trading technology, catering to the evolving needs of institutional investors.
