Access to Japan

RTS provides connectivity to Osaka Securities Exchange

Frankfurt/Sydney – RTS Realtime Systems Group, the leading global Independent Software Vendor (ISV) providing professional trading software to the financial community, now offers connectivity to Japan’s Osaka Securities Exchange (OSE).

OSE, one of the major Japanese exchanges established in 1878, provides a highly liquid market for equities, stock index futures, stock index options and equity options.

“This is an important next step for RTS. With the addition of OSE, we are pleased to broaden our global market coverage in the Asia Pacific area and in Japan, in particular” comments Christian M. Schild, Member of the Board at RTS.

Connectivity solutions to other exchanges in the region will follow as the request for further Asian trading capabilities is constantly growing among RTS customers.

“This new interface gives our clients the opportunity to arbitrage directly between the OSE and SGX using our software products. We have a strong demand for our products from the trading community and this interface will boost their trading opportunities and give our users a better edge”, adds Henk Huitema, Managing Director for Asia-Pacific at RTS in Sydney.
