We appreciate the support of our initial participants and look forward to working together as an industry to improve and consolidate reporting requirements for the entire European trading community."
BATS Chi-X Europe is pleased to confirm that the following firms are in the process of joining the BXTR service:
• Citigroup
• Credit Suisse
