24 Exchange has successfully launched live Foreign Exchange (FX) swaps trading using CobaltFX's Dynamic Credit process, offering a new approach to credit management in the FX market, the companies announced today.
The multi-asset trading platform, known for cost-efficient and low-latency trading solutions, has integrated CobaltFX's technology to enable traders to maximise available credit lines in real-time, allowing for more flexible trade execution.
The Dynamic Credit process allows counterparties to pre-set credit relationships and dynamically allocate available credit based on real-time trading conditions, which the companies claim will improve capital efficiency whilst reducing settlement risks and pre-funding constraints.
"We are thrilled to be live with FX swaps trading and to offer our clients a more efficient, cost-effective trading environment. The collaboration with CobaltFX allows us to redefine how credit is managed in the FX market, giving participants unprecedented access to liquidity," said Jason Woerz, President of 24 Exchange.
According to the firms, the integration benefits both makers and takers of liquidity by addressing traditional credit limitations and operational inefficiencies in the FX swaps market. The dynamic management of credit exposure enables traders to access deeper liquidity pools and execute larger trades with reduced counterparty risk.
Darren Coote, CEO of CobaltFX, added, "24 Exchange's adoption of our Dynamic Credit process is a testament to its ability to revolutionise credit management in FX markets. By optimising credit usage in real-time, we are helping the industry reduce risk while increasing efficiency and transparency."
CobaltFX, founded in 2015 and now part of United Fintech Group, developed its Dynamic Credit distribution system to eliminate carve-outs and automate FX credit allocation, providing real-time control over credit exposure across all FX products and market access points.
