Liquidnet grows LatAm presence with enhanced equities trading in Brazil and Mexico
Liquidnet, a technology driven, agency execution specialist, today announced the continued expansion of its Latin America equities offering, enhancing access to liquidity and execution capabilities for institutional investors trading Brazilian and Mexican equities.
Liquidnet’s expanded capabilities enable Members to source institutional sized block liquidity, while simultaneously working algorithmic strategies in the broader marketplace. This integrated approach allows investors to pursue liquidity discreetly and efficiently—without sacrificing reach or control.
Liquidnet’s differentiated model gives Members access to more than 1,200 institutional counterparties globally. Unlike venues that rely on external dark pools, Liquidnet operates a single, trusted liquidity network—designed to foster transparency, confidence, and meaningful block interaction among the buy side.
“Our expanded capabilities allow Members to access block liquidity, customized region-focused algorithms for Brazil and Mexico, and access to our Americas high-touch trading desk for trading across the region – all within a non-conflictive agency framework,” said Eric Blake, Head of LatAm.
Through its global trading desk and local market expertise, Liquidnet acts as a one stop shop—executing on behalf of clients while helping them navigate local market structure, regulatory considerations, and liquidity dynamics.
Liquidnet’s Latin America equities offering in Brazil and Mexico combines block execution functionality, algorithmic capabilities, and high touch trading services to help institutional investors maintain anonymity, minimize market impact, and execute with confidence. The platform is designed to meet the needs of global asset managers seeking scalable, high quality execution in both emerging and developed markets.
“As global investors continue to look to Latin America for diversification and growth, our focus remains on delivering trusted access to liquidity through a model built on alignment with our Members,” Alan Polo, Co-Head of Equities Sales and Trading, Americas added. “This expansion reinforces Liquidnet’s commitment to providing seamless, institutional grade execution wherever our clients trade.”
