Access to Japan is NeoNet's spearhead into the Asian markets. Japanese trading will be followed by NeoNet offering access to additional exchanges in the Asian region. The addition of the Japanese markets creates a global trading service offering with round-the-clock trading for NeoNet's professional client base.

"With the addition of Japan, and other Asian markets to follow, we meet the global trading need of our buy- and sell-side clients around the world," said Simon Nathanson, CEO of NeoNet. "We are in a phase of rapid expansion and will continue to add new marketplaces and high-performance trading functionality."

"We have seen an increasing demand from our clients to use NeoNet as their independent agency broker and DMA access point for their Asian trading," said Greg Treacy, Director of US Sales, NeoNet. "To best service the demands of our client base, we have increased staffing and set up trading operations from our US office covering the full suite of Asian market hours."
