Your Bourse has added Advanced Markets to its Premium Liquidity Provider program, offering startup brokers a bundled package where the liquidity provider sponsors the technology costs. This follows STARPrime joining the same program in December. Under the arrangement, brokers connect to both liquidity and technology through a single setup instead of negotiating separately, eliminating the need to pay for Your Bourse’s platform directly.
The package includes Your Bourse Bridge for platform connectivity, the Matching Engine for order routing, hosting infrastructure, real-time FIX logs, and the Trade Blotter for flow reporting. Brokers receive 250 symbols and one billion in monthly notional volume allowance covering A-Book or B-Book flow, with 99.999% uptime guarantees. Advanced Markets aggregates pricing from over 20 counterparties including banks and electronic communication networks.
This bundled approach reflects growing industry trends as liquidity providers increasingly sponsor technology to attract smaller brokers with limited budgets. Similar models exist from Match-Trade Technologies and Devexperts.
FXnCO Insight
Startup brokers now have expanding zero-cost technology options, intensifying competition among prime-of-prime providers fighting for market share through sponsored infrastructure deals.
