Ho Chi Minh City & Paris – 23nd October, 2025 – Horizon Trading Solutions (Horizon), a leading global provider of multi-asset electronic trading technology, today announces that Shinhan Securities Vietnam, part of Shinhan Financial Group, is now live on its multi-asset trading and order management solution. The go-live supports Shinhan’s strategic goal of enhancing its trading capabilities as Vietnam advances toward emerging market status.
The rollout covers market making and brokerage activities on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE). Shinhan Securities Vietnam selected Horizon to support its Warrant market making and brokerage trading workflows. Horizon’s solution encompasses market connectivity, and integration with its core system for real-time market data and transaction management.
Shinhan Securities Vietnam now benefits from Horizon’s comprehensive trading solution, which includes a powerful Order Management System (OMS) used by its brokerage desk to streamline order flow and execution. The firm also leverages Horizon’s algorithmic trading strategies, including TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price), VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price), and POV (Percentage of Volume), to optimize execution quality and trade efficiency. On the market making side, Shinhan utilizes Horizon’s advanced capabilities to support Warrant trading on HOSE, ensuring accurate quoting, execution, and risk control within Vietnam’s dynamic markets.
Mr. Van Duy Ngoc Tan, Head of Proprietary Trading at Shinhan Securities Vietnam commented: “We are excited to go live with Horizon’s platform, especially its advanced Order Management System, which brings global-grade efficiency and control to our Vietnam operations. Horizon has delivered not only robust OMS technology tailored to our needs, but also responsive and experienced local support that has been critical to a smooth rollout. This collaboration sets the foundation for future innovation as we continue expanding in Vietnam’s capital markets.”
“We’re honored to support Shinhan Securities Vietnam with a comprehensive solution spanning both brokerage and market making,” said Emmanuel Faure Head of APAC & MENA at Horizon Trading Solutions. “The fact that Shinhan Korea already relies on Horizon for market making, and that Shinhan Securities Vietnam chose us over local vendors for the strength of our professional services, speaks volumes about the value and flexibility we deliver. We’re proud to continue supporting Shinhan’s international growth.”
This project also highlights the benefit of cross-regional alignment within Shinhan Financial Group, leveraging shared confidence in Horizon’s infrastructure and expertise.
The initial phase of the rollout focuses on click trading for cash equities and futures, with order flow routed through a dedicated IMS ledger system and execution via brokers KISA and BNP Paribas. Shinhan plans to expand functionality in future phases, including basket pricing, futures pricing, and advanced automation modules.
