In recent news, Algomi CEO and co-founder, Stu Taylor, has been included in the prominent Institutional Investor Trading Tech 40 for the third year in a row. This year, he occupied the 29th position among many influential market magnates. Stu’s nomination is founded in his important role in the fast and effective growth of Algomi, as well as the introduction of the innovative Honeycomb network.

All about Stu

Before co-founding Algomi, Stu Taylor was Managing Director, Global Head of Matched Principal Trading in Fixed Income at UBS, a Swiss global financial services company. In 2010 he introduced UBS PIN–FI, the first Fixed Income model at a global investment bank to cover bonds and CDS.

He has also held various positions both at UBS and Merrill Lynch, in addition to having served as a board member of Tradeweb and of Baymarkets, both trading systems for financial markets internationally. Stu Taylor also holds an MPhil in management studies and industrial economics from the UK’s Cambridge University.

Trading Tech 40

Institutional Investor’s Trading Technology 40 distinguishes the people behind successful Fintech companies, who build and maintain systems, react to augmented regulation and acquiescence and stay in the frontline of the latest trading advances with cutting edge technology.

The Trading Technology 40 winners are selected each year by the editors of Institutional Investor, taking into account external recommendations as well as the opinions of trade experts. Criteria for leadership include – but are not limited to – major career accomplishments, contributions to individual companies as well as the trade industry in general. Quite a few Trading Technology 40 frontrunners have remained in the list for consecutive years while alternating rankings.

International recognition

Here at Algomi, news of Stu’s continued presence in the Trading Tech 40 is something we are very proud of. We are all committed to constantly innovating the way the buy-side and sell-side trade fixed incomes interchange.

Further confirmation of Algomi’s status as a leading Fintech network came in November 2016, when Euronext announced a partnership with Algomi capitalised by the former with a $10 million strategic stake in order to expand to North America and Asia. This venture will make Algomi’s technology accessible to new international markets.
