Bats Chi-X Europe, the region's largest share trading platform, is to improve access to its multiple order books, marking one of the final phases of the operator's integration a year after its creation.

Bats Chi-X Europe was formed by a $365m merger of two leading European trading platforms last November. Since then it has continued to operate separate order books including those for its lit markets - called BXE and CXE - and also its markets for dark, or anonymous, trading.
