Morgan Stanley pulls out of Jiway

Morgan Stanley has withdrawn its financial support from Jiway, the electronic exchange for retail investors it founded with OM Group.

The move by Morgan Stanley, which will remain as a market maker on the exchange, also signals the end of Jiway's attempt to find a new equity partner for the troubled exchange. From October 1, Jiway will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of OM Group, the Swedish technology group. This includes all the trading, clearing, and back office operations.
