Foreign Exchange (FX)
eSpeed delivers the world's biggest market to your desktop.
With eSpeed's patented, innovative technology and matchless features, traders can tap into the foreign exchange market's massive transaction volume—an average over US$3 trillion per day.

Leveraging the first-ever real-time international settlement system—Continuous Linked Settlement (CLSTM), eSpeed has introduced a matched principal marketplace with BGC Partners as the central counterparty. This enables traders to hedge positions, expand their trading strategy and benefit from increased liquidity.

We've fine tuned our powerful processing engines to optimize electronic spot FX trading.

Using our unique global distribution capability we're creating FX markets with superior pricing capabilities in all major CLS currencies.

What's does eSpeed bring to the FX market?

  • Real-time international settlement and clearance
  • Removal of intra-day settlement risk
  • Fully anonymous trading
  • The first electronic trading platform to leverage CLS
  • Market-leading technology
  • Proven reliability
  • Ease-of-use

Anonymous trading
FX trading is no longer solely on a "name give-up basis". Our neutral and anonymous system expands the opportunities for all counterparties.
Reduced costs
eSpeed's end-to-end processing combined with CLS's settlement capability creates a true instant currency exchange with radically reduced overall settlement and reconciliation costs. Which, of course, means lower fees.
Temporal risk is obsolete.
eSpeed's connection to CLS marries the world's fastest electronic trading platform to the first real-time international clearance system. Temporal settlement risk, associated with receiving payment across borders and time zones, may now be eliminated.
Certainty is guaranteed.
Supported by over 65 of the world's largest financial groups, the CLS settlement process is final and irrevocable. And because eSpeed FX operates as a matched principal marketplace using BGC International as the central counterpart, settlement risk can be avoided.
Technology to trade with.
eSpeed's technology is tried and tested. We are already an established leader in electronic trading. And, whether it is the proven reliability of our platform and network, fully-supported STP, or ease-of-use and configurable trading screens, eSpeed's electronic FX trading platform is technology you can trade with.
