CDM Pekao Chooses SunGard's Valdi for Warsaw Stock
Exchange Connectivity
June 13, 2012 - Warsaw, Poland
Centralny Dom Maklerski Pekao S.A. (CDM Pekao), one of the
largest securities firms in Poland and part of the
UniCredit Group, has selected
Valdi for direct market access trading on the Warsaw
Stock Exchange (WSE).
CDM Pekao specializes in offering multi-asset, multi-market
trading access to retail investors. Its traders will use
SunGard's Valdi workstations, trading tools and gateways
for trading connectivity to the exchange.
Wojciech Rutkowski, president of the management board at
CDM Pekao, said, "Our parent company UniCredit Group has a
long-standing relationship with SunGard. In addition to the
success of that relationship, we selected SunGard's Valdi
because of its comprehensive functionality and scalable
architecture that can support our growth. A reliable vendor
partner like SunGard gives us confidence that we can
seamlessly migrate our trading business when the WSE
introduces the new NYSE Euronext UTP trading engine later
this year, as well as helping us fully leverage the
engine's new capabilities."
Philippe Carré, global head of connectivity for SunGard's
capital markets business, said, "Many Polish brokers are
re-evaluating their technology infrastructures as the move
to the Warsaw Stock Exchange's new trading platform gets
closer. SunGard is helping customers like CDM Pekao by
providing the functionality, low latency and scalability
that they need to migrate to the exchange's new technology
and help expand their business."
