Chris Blackburn, Chief Operating Officer at UBS Execution Hub, said:

"We are excited to partner with FlexTrade so UBS Execution Hub can provide a comprehensive outsourced execution solution, leveraging our longstanding buy-side execution experience and extensive cross asset liquidity network for the benefit our clients."

“Combining our own market-leading technology alongside FlexTrade's track record with buy side trading desks provides the foundation to extend our global outsourced execution offering to additional client segments."

Rajiv Kedia, Principal & Associate Founder and Global Head of Sell-Side Trading Solutions at FlexTrade Systems added:

"We are delighted to partner with UBS, as they build out Execution Hub, their cross-asset, global outsourced dealing platform.
