    NEW YORK, LONDON, HONG KONG, TOKYO and SINGAPORE, Aug 21 /EMWNews/

-- TradingScreen Inc., the premier global execution management system (EMS)

providing multi-broker and multi-asset class trading systems to more than

1000 Buy-Side institutions, today announced the opening of the company's

office in the city-state of Singapore. Singapore's strategic geographical

location will allow TradingScreen to better serve both the local and

regional Buy-Side communities, as well as build on distribution

capabilities for its multi-asset class execution management system (EMS)

and service offerings in the region. Located in Singapore's financial

district at Six Battery Road, the company's South East Asian and Pacific

regional client relationships will be managed through the Singapore office.



    Commenting on the office opening, Michael Chin, President of

TradingScreen, Inc. said: "The opening of our Singapore office is a

continuation of our longstanding success in -- and commitment to -- the

Asia-Pacific region. We have identified a number of opportunities in the

region, including those in emerging markets, which we will better

capitalize upon by the addition and commitment of local resources. Not only

will our existing client base in Singapore benefit from the local coverage,

but by being on the ground in Singapore we will also augment our ability to

more efficiently and resourcefully grow our Asia-Pacific franchise."



    Nathan Walker has been appointed Head of South East Asia and Pacific

for TradingScreen, Inc. Walker will be based in Singapore and work jointly

with TradingScreen's Hong Kong-based Head of North Asia, Bernard Ho, who

also oversees the company's Japan business in the region.



    "I am very excited to be joining TradingScreen during the company's

expansion phase in Asia and the Pacific region," Walker said.

"TradingScreen is the leading independent technology provider in the

Asia-Pacific region today that allows traders to access global markets and

multiple executing brokers, as well as trade multiple asset classes under

one platform." Added Walker: "With my experience in the use of EMS

technology within the Asia-Pacific Buy-Side community, I plan to build on

TradingScreen's success and reputation as the leader in their field."



    Prior to joining TradingScreen, Walker spent nearly ten years with

Bloomberg LP, and was most recently based in Singapore. During his tenure

with the company, Walker's roles ranged from Manager of the Emerging

Markets and Singapore Sales Teams, to serving as a key member of the

Execution Management System (EMS) team in Australia. Before joining

Bloomberg, Walker served as Manager for Capital Markets at Reuters in

Australia.



    Commenting further on the announcement, Chin notes the experience and

regional knowledge Walker will bring to the TradingScreen management team.

"Nathan brings with him tremendous experience and a wealth of relevant

knowledge to our global sales organization," Chin said.
