Equiduct proves a prosperous conduit

Two years into its relaunch as a retail-focused platform, Equiduct is one of the fastest-growing European trading venues so far this year

First established in 2007 by Börse Berlin as an institutional trading platform, Equiduct was initially a slow starter. It relaunched in March 2009 and four months later Citadel Execution Services took a controlling stake, with a view to repositioning Equiduct as a venue for retail orderflow.

In June last year, US marketmaker Knight Capital took a stake to tap into the growth of Europe's retail market.
