Chi-X Europe Limited, operator of the largest pan-European equity multilateral trading facility (MTF), today announced that as part of its commitment to Macmillan Cancer Support, all net trading revenues generated on Friday, 8 May 2009, will be donated to the charity.
Chi-X Europe nominated Macmillan Cancer Support as its charity of choice in November 2008, and asked a number of its 15 shareholders to nominate a day on which all revenues would be donated.
Robert Barnes, Managing Director Equities at UBS Investment Bank and Chairman of the LIBA Securities Trading Committee, said: “Chi-X Europe deserves thanks for raising the profile of Macmillan’s work. This is a great opportunity for market participants to show that they care.”
