About Aquis Exchange

Aquis Exchange PLC is an exchange services group, which operates a
pan-European cash equities trading business (Aquis Exchange) and develops and
licenses exchange software to third parties (Aquis Technologies). Aquis
Exchange PLC (AQX.L) is quoted on the London Stock Exchange's Alternative
Investment Market (AIM).

 

Aquis Exchange is authorised and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct
Authority and France's Autorité des Marchés Financiers to operate
Multilateral Trading Facility businesses in the UK and in EU27 respectively.

Aquis operates a lit order book and does not permit aggressive non-client
proprietary trading, which has resulted in lower toxicity and signalling risk
on Aquis than other trading venues in Europe. According to independent
studies, trades on Aquis are less likely to lead to price movement than on
other lit markets. Aquis applies a subscription pricing model which works by
charging users according to the message traffic they generate, rather than a
percentage of the value of each security that they execute. This model can
significantly reduce the cost of trading.
