Mission
Our mission is; sustainable competition for lit pool equities trading across all European Equities Markets to help investors feed the real economy.
Differentiators
Quote MTF's is Europe's newest Pan-European MTF offering the only legitimate competitor to the two leading MTF companies and incumbent exchanges. We offer the most economical facility for taking liquidity from the order book and operate the only truly sustainable business model for pure equities trading.
Our Culture
Quote MTF views an exchange as a technology based utility. Our company is based on a silicon valley organization structure; flat, innovative, efficient and service orientated.
Our Values
We are keen spokespeople, activists and advocates for equities being the primary mechanism for raising capital to support business. We believe equity presents a superior, more wholesome, stable mechanism for resourcing the real economy than debt which has caused so much damage to global economies and the capitalist model over the past decade. We also believe that public listing provides a better societal contribution to the exclusivities of the private equity industries.
We believe that all equities trading should be transparent and for this to happen it should occur on exchange, in the open and be accessible to all. We question the benefits of dark pool trading, privileged off exchange clubs and the UK's RSP network. We believe in good citizenship but believe UK stamp tax damages the ability for investors to service the real economy and lobby for change.
We ensure equities trading is equitable, transparent, open and accessible to all.
Strategy
Quote MTF's business is underpinned by key strategic partnerships with leading trading and broking firms. We are constantly looking to increase participation from a broad and diverse client base so that we may offer one of the highest quality liquidity pools. Quote MTF's unparalleled operating efficiencies create an economically viable business model ensuring sustained competition in equities markets. Unburdened by margin pressures or larger parent ownership we are more adaptable and altogether more synergistic. We are committed to low exchange fee and no cost for connectivity services.
A Differentiated Model
A radically distinct fee structure brings new trading opportunities and a differentiated trading book. The no rebate - equity participation model aligns the interests of major liquidity providers to the success of the platform and therefore to the service of the market as a whole.
Not incentivising passive flow, allows us to reduce fees for taking liquidity passing savings onto liquidity takers and end investors directly through cost plus or broker services arrangements. Quote MTF is currently the most economical place to take liquidity.
Recognising the regulators' preference for lit trading, there is no dark offering and we are able to focus purely on equities trading.
We continue to invest in our technologies, and ensure our matching engine, Thymex, is one of the fastest in existence.
