NEW YORK – Instinet Incorporated (Instinet) today announced that its US brokerage subsidiary, Instinet, LLC, now offers buyside clients access to Luminex Trading & Analytics’ full suite of products through Newport 3, Instinet’s award winning global EMS.
Newport users may now search for large institutional blocks of liquidity by electing to expose shares to Luminex. They may access the full suite of Luminex ATS tools to auto-execute orders and ‘size up’ on conditional (blotter sweep) shares. The integrated offering heralds the next generation of blotter registration and offers buyside investors the opportunity for greater oversight of their trading exposure.
Instinet, LLC worked closely with Luminex since before its launch in October, 2015. Newport is one of the first broker-neutral EMS platforms to provide the buyside access to the full suite of Luminex products, which is the culmination of understanding and listening to client demand. This recently completed integration creates a new potential opportunity in the marketplace for the buyside investor.

Clark, CEO of Luminex. “Luminex was created to provide the buyside community with a more efficient, lower cost and transparent block trading experience.
