Perseus, a leading global provider of managed services and high-precision, high-speed connectivity, today announced it will provide customers with real-time market data and direct access to the U.S. Equities and Treasuries markets through Nasdaq’s TotalView and eSpeed ITCH. Nasdaq’s premier data feed, Nasdaq TotalView, offers full depth data at every price level for all Nasdaq-, NYSE- and regionally- listed securities on Nasdaq. Through eSpeed ITCH, Perseus customers will have access to one of the world’s largest electronic markets for fixed income trading.

The launch of this service will allow Nasdaq TotalView and eSpeed ITCH to be distributed globally via the Perseus network to 72 major financial liquidity centers and key emerging markets. These solutions are available as part of the award winning Perseus LiquidPath® service, designed specifically for financial services firms to provide low-risk, low-latency connectivity and trading infrastructure globally. The Nasdaq TotalView and eSpeed ITCH connectivity services enhance the global time stamping service that Perseus already offers within Nasdaq's Carteret colocation facility.

"We are excited to expand our portfolio of market data and market access services with the addition of Nasdaq and eSpeed.  Incorporating these marketplaces into our LiquidPath service, we have lowered the barrier to entry for our customers even further, and our customers can now incorporate U.S. equities and Treasuries into their global trading strategies,” commented Jock Percy, CEO of Perseus.

“Perseus’ customers will benefit from actionable data and will be able to navigate more efficiently in one of the world’s largest electronic markets for U.S. Treasuries trading,” said Oliver Albers, Vice President Global Information Services, Nasdaq. “This includes a fully transparent look at how orders are distributed in the market which will enable them to express sentiment and execute strategies seamlessly.”
