Our journey with Eventus commenced in 2017 when Phillip Capital first discovered this innovative company. What immediately struck us was not only their cutting-edge technology but also their unwavering enthusiasm in every interaction. This initial encounter laid the foundation for a highly successful and productive partnership with Eventus. Fast forward a few years, and I am happy to say that Eventus has not only fulfilled all our surveillance needs with exceptional service but also played a pivotal role in supporting the expansion of our business into new markets and products. Notably, Eventus facilitated our ventures into equity options and, more recently, into Eurex. I look forward to extending this partnership with the belief that our companies will continue on a path of success together.”
Eventus CEO Travis Schwab said: “We are so grateful that PhillipCapital is extending our long-standing relationship.
