Brazil is poised to lead Latin America in a high-frequency trading (HFT) revolution, but other Latin America countries are not far behind!

According to Aite Growp, investments in technology by Brazilian exchange BF&M Bovespa have led to increases in HFT participation, with penetration in terms of equity trading volumes rising from 4% in December 2010 to 12% in September 2011.

“While algo and high frequency trading volumes in Latin America are small compared to an estimated 60% of US volumes, BM&F Bovespa’s efforts to improve technological infrastructure have already unlocked liquidity in the LatAm market.”
However, there are still challenges that need to be tackled:

Dealing with the local trading infrastructure
Barriers to entry for foreign investors
Low trading volumes and many others

Despite some hurdles, Latin American market shows a great potential that should not be overlooked.
