“We continue to enhance our functionality and services with great results for customers at both of our major markets,” said Joe Ratterman, CEO of BATS Exchange and BATS Global Markets. “While other market centers have continued to increase their rates for routing and removing liquidity rates, BATS has maintained better take and route fees than our competitors.

“This week, in particular, we are celebrating the one-year anniversary of BATS Europe and the incredible progress our London team has made in such a short time. We couldn’t have asked for a better reception in this market and we thank our investors and customers globally for their continued support,” he said.
