Wombat, part of NYSE Euronext Advanced Trading Solutions, is a global leader in high-performance financial market data management solutions. Founded in 1997, the company was acquired by NYSE Euronext (NYSE/Euronext: NYX) in March 2008.
Through our offices in the U.S., U.K. and Japan, we offer a high speed market data and messaging platform with direct connection to markets that facilitates large volume, low latency data management and integration.
Our customers are financial institutions such as merchant banks who use the systems to 'purify' and 'normalise' financial data generated by various financial exchanges around the world. These companies use this information to make 'buy/sell' decisions on the financial exchanges. Speed and accuracy of data is of paramount importance to our customers. One of Wombat's key strengths is that it has the quickest market data technology in the industry, and this strength is resistant to advances in competitors' technologies because such quickness is already virtually zero latency.
The Wombat brand is known particularly for its technical excellence, product quality, low latency (high speed) and competitive cost which is why we currently serve over 100 customers worldwide including all top 12 of the world's largest financial institutions.
Wombat employs approximately 175 people worldwide.
NYSE Euronext Advanced Trading Solutions provides seamless high performance trading across asset classes, global geographies and time zones and a common end-to-end platform for accessing liquidity in any market. The group combines Wombat's market-leading data management and distribution solutions with the highest-performing enterprise software for financial connectivity (TransactTools) and the network and facilities infrastructure of the world's leading markets (SFTI).
