The Canadian financial institution ATB Financial, and smartTrade, an international trading platform, have created a partnership. Both parties made a joint statement on 26th January 2023, announcing that ATB Financial had integrated smartTrade Forex Solution as its online foreign exchange platform.
Details of ATB Financial integration with SmartTrade FX Solution
According to Ryan Rabin, ATB Financial's Vice President of Banking and Payment Solutions, the bank was "searching for a partner with a solid reputation and fundamental knowledge on FX trading and distribution with the requisite technology to enable it." Consequently, the bank chose smartTrade because of its comprehensive trade and payment processes.
ATB Financial also weighed the company's ability to deliver a comprehensive end-to-end solution. The bank was also looking for a company with an efficient support team to meet the needs of its increasing clientele and provide an excellent connection to liquidity providers.
David Vincent, the founder, and CEO of smartTrade, also reacted to this partnership. He stated that the company was experienced in meeting the bank's requirements. He added that smartTrade's comprehensive features would lessen the bank's reliance on manual processes.
