Alternative Trading Systems ECNs

You may submit sites to this category that enable users to execute transactions in the capital markets using an electronic interface, for example the Internet.
An alternative trading system (ATS), as the name suggests, provides the means for investors to execute transactions in the capital markets, usually via the Internet or a private network, without using traditional exchanges. Often known as ECNs (electronic communication/crossing networks), ECNs usually cater for stock trades but also exist for bonds, syndicated loans and foreign exchange (FX).
