The ATS has had particular success against Euronext Amsterdam, where its market share in blue chips such as Philips and ING reached 44% and 29% respectively at the end of August.
Chi-X’s market share is growing rapidly in some stocks. In July, the ATS traded just over 10% of the volume of Royal Dutch A shares. By the end of August, its share of the trading in the oil major reached almost 30%.
Credible alternative
Chi-X has also grabbed about 10% of the market for several of the most liquid German stocks, including Allianz and Deutsche Telekom.
“We’ve already achieved more to establish ourselves as a credible alternative than the London Stock Exchange’s Dutch Trading Service or Tradepoint or any of the others ever have, even though we only launched at the end of March,” says Peter Randall, director at Chi-X.
