NLX tests the water with trading fees

Nasdaq's EU derivatives platform starts charging for trading for the first time since launching last year

Nasdaq OMX has started charging for trading on its European derivatives platform NLX after seeing growing volumes in some interest rate contracts offered on the venue.

Since April 1, the trading venue started charging £0.01 for sterling-denominated contracts and €0.0125 for euro-denominated contracts. NLX plans to revise its fees on a quarterly basis.
