Commenting on the launch, Dan Kessous, CEO of Chi-X Canada, said: “Over the last five years we have remained committed to lowering the overall cost of trading in Canada through the introduction of innovative pricing and services that enhance trading performance.  Today’s announcement is no exception, as we are excited to unveil a pricing schedule for CX2 that will provide an under-serviced segment of the market with greater choice and cost savings opportunities.” 

He continued: “Following the TMX Group’s acquisition of Alpha, we have heard calls from the industry for greater competition.  With the introduction of CX2, we will provide a market place that services both the retail investor and small to mid-tier brokers, groups that are currently disadvantaged on other markets.”
