Turquoise

Turquoise operates a pan-European equities trading platform, structured as two Multilateral Trading Facilities (MTFs) regulated by the FCA and TGHE. Majority-owned by the London Stock Exchange Group, it offers members access to over 4,500 securities across 20 European markets. The platform delivers efficient execution services via diverse order books, including Turquoise Retail Max™, improving best execution for market participants.

Established in 2008, Turquoise began as a collaborative venture by nine major investment banks. Their founding insight was to disrupt traditional trading by offering discounted dealing services. This fostered competition and efficiency within the European equity landscape, creating a user-centric venue prioritizing cost-effectiveness and market access.

Turquoise serves diverse market participants, including institutional investors and brokers throughout Europe. The platform simplifies complex cross-border trading, offering unified access to fragmented European liquidity. Its vision centers on continuously enhancing market efficiency and transparency, aiming to remain a leading innovator in European financial markets.
