Reuters Report Confirms Dominion Provident Ventures, Inc. Report Regarding Volume of Trading in “Dark Pools”

November 30, 2009 | Author: | Posted in Business

The investment team at DPVI has published an interesting report about the growth of the ‘Dark pools” market in Europe, that was recently confirmed by Reuters. The value of shares traded through independently owned ‘dark pools’ of liquidity in Europe has jumped almost fivefold since the start of the year in a sign that investors are shrugging off increasing regulatory scrutiny of these off-exchange trading venues.

According to Dominion Provident Ventures, Inc., the value of trades carried out within dark pools of liquidity – facilities that allow dealing in shares outside of traditional exchanges without prices being disclosed publicly rose almost 7 billion pounds in less than a year. However, the total amount of trading via dark pools of all kinds is still modest. Independent dark pools accounted for only 1.2 per cent of all share trading in Europe in October, according to Thomas Reuters.

These findings are echoed in a report expected out today by DPVI, a European Venture Capital Group, who reported that while dark pools are growing fast, they account for only 4.1 percent of all equities trading in Europe.
