About Volbroker Volbroker is the first electronic inter-dealer trading environment for FX Options. Building on this unique mix of technical and market expertise, Volbroker provides a compelling alternative to trading though traditional voice brokers. The automated pricing, dealing, and confirmation routines follow established market convention.
Users benefit through improved price and market depth transparency, liquidity, and trade tracking.
The overall efficiencies of scale that Volbroker attains result in cheap commissions paid by the users. Volbroker's investing partners are Citibank, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Royal Bank of Scotland, and UBS-Warburg. These banks' FX Options desks make prices through the Volbroker system to ensure liquidity. Service commenced for these banks in August 2000, and roll-out to the rest of the FX options dealing community followed within weeks. A dozen more London options desks joined the system in mid-September, and infrastructure installation proceeds in parallel for the American and Asian financial centres.
